Supporting Language and Literacy 0-5 offers practical guidance for those supporting young children's language and literacy development. It describes the important features of early language development providing a clear and accessible theoretical framework illustrated by practical examples taken from a wide range of early years settings.
Linking directly to the Early Years Foundation Stage, the book focuses on the principles of inclusion, equality, individualised learning, planning, assessment and cross-curricular working that play a vital part in delivering the EYFS successfully. Additional features include:
- a range of reflective and interactive activities supported by photocopiable materials
- extension tasks for group training
- practical examples to link the theory to practice
- annotated further reading lists.
Supporting Language and Literacy 0-5 is an ideal handbook for trainers and trainees in local authorities, colleges and universities delivering courses such as BTEC, NVQ and NNEB. It is also a valuable resource for early years practitioners encouraging them to reflect on their own experiences and understand the direct impact they can have on children's learning.
