Understanding phonological awareness and phonics is crucial to supporting the development of early reading and writing. This series of workshops will increase teacher knowledge and confidence to plan systematic and interactive mini-lessons to teach students word and sub-word level skills so they can successfully decode words for reading and encode words for writing.
This comprehensive series of workshops is practical and research based and will support you to plan a manageable and effective writing programme. It is suitable for New Zealand and Australian teachers in their first or second year of teaching and aligns with the New Zealand and Australian curriculums.
Many students can decode automatically and accurately but have little or no understanding of what they read. How can we support students to help themselves when meaning breaks down? This workshop takes current reading research and translates it into classroom practice.
Book clubs (literature circles) are a student-centred activity that involves small groups of students reading the same novel. This provides the opportunity for students to read, reflect, discuss and respond to books in an authentic and natural way. Book clubs allow students to work both individually and collaboratively to gain meaning of the text. In this workshop, Sheena will share practical ideas for setting up book clubs. Participants will experience being part of a book club.
Lack of competency in spelling can be an obstacle to the success and enjoyment in writing for many students. If spelling is a challenge, it slows down the writing process and interferes with the flow of ideas. It can also result in students making limited vocabulary choices.
Explicitly teaching students phonics, morphology and spelling conventions demystifies the alphabetical code and equips them with the tools they need to spell. It also develops word consciousness and builds a love of vocabulary.
