'In reading this book practitioners may be able to gain a vast repertoire of activities that supports the young literate in their classroom. This practical guide demonstrates how one might go about
teaching the vital sub-skills of emergent literacy development in authentic and purposeful ways'-Andrew Sinko, Educate
This book is a great resource to support Unit 9 - Emerging Children's literacy and it has supported my learners' to look wider for quotes and theory to support their coursework.
A lovely book which looks at literacy from a practitioner point of view. Some super ideas and easy to understand explanations of promoting literacy in the early years. Some lovely relevant images reinforce the information
This is a great book to support understanding of literacy of young children. There are some lovely examples to use in practice included, and detailed reflection of how these aid learning and development. This book is truly focused on literacy, yet covers a range of factors that impinge on children's literacy development, such as, for example, the role of parents. Some of the content reminded me of my first ever teaching resource book - This Little Puffin!
A must read for all early years students
Covers all aspects of literacy development. Useful and informative, and easy to access for undergraduate students.
Chapter 5 on mark making and writing will be recommended to support a taught session on the Communication, Language and Literacy module for second year B.Ed students. The colour pictures are particularly useful as examples for students to examine.
I have highly recommended this for my students studying in their childcare course and further teaching courses which they are hoping to continue with.
A great book that has helped the students with thier childcare course Unit 35 in particular. this has been recommended to the students and to the college library.
We are going to use chapters from this text with our Early Years trainees in all three years.
A richly illustrated text that links current theories of, and research into, early literacy with clear observational assessment.
Providing excellent links between theory and practice, this book explains challenging concepts clearly, locating them in practical contexts. Its coverage is wholly appropriate for our second year ITE students.
A text all practitioners should read. Its core values should underpin all good primary practice.
My Early Years colleague has found this book very useful with her students.
Lots of good ideas to support those working during the literacy session in the classroom. Easy to read and clear information given throughout.
Used as a book to extend reading in literacy
Very good for all practitioners.
An excellent book with some really good practical ideas that learners can put into practice. This will be a useful tool for level 2 and level 3's and back up theory sessions. Is there an equivalent for secondary age groups???
Good practical ideas and resource
