Synopsis:
The play-based learning and individualized strategies in this practical book build on the wide range of literacy skills present in the kindergarten classroom. This valuable resource explores simple ways to use traditional learning centres to provide children with real and authentic reasons to listen, speak, read, write, and view. Teachers will find a wealth of resources for creating meaningful learning experiences, including:
- answers to often-asked questions
- milestones to inform teaching instruction
- activities and games for both individuals and groups
- literacy extensions that involve children with quality literature, authentic artifacts, and recordings
This highly readable book will support teachers as they move beyond worksheets and nurture students on their journey to lifelong literacy.
