Within each section it states what the students should be able to achieve for example under speaking and listening it states We want out students to develop increasing confidence and competence in speaking and listening so they are able to: • Clarify and explain their ideas and explain their thinking. • Use a varied and specialised vocabulary. • Listen with understanding and respond sensitively and appropriately. Under reading it states we want our students to enjoy reading, to be able to use their reading to help them learn to develop increasing confidence and competence in reading so that they are able to: • Read fluently and with understanding. • Select information from a wide range of texts and resources including print, media and to evaluate those sources.
The more they practice and the more teachers and parents instill this in their minds, the better they will become. Perfect practice, makes perfect. Most people would probably have trouble with trying to remember how they learned to read. I would have to say that I am a person who loves to read and I think that is it really an amazing thing. Also, I am someone who is involved in education and research and I think that it is amazing how learning to read is said to be a talent that it potentially impossible.
To aid in this development, the use of nursery rhyme is a great strategy and has found to be very effective. Sing along can also be utilized to bring across this concept as they break words into syllables which is easier for the child to grasp. Implementing this technique, allows the child to better illustrate words as they pass across the screen. The Florida Reading Quarterly states that print motivation is a child’s interest in using printed materials such as books and is elated when doing so. One will find that these children, who enjoy reading, will be a lot more interested when reading with parents and peers.
How to Teach Autistic Kids to Read Teaching autistic children reading skills is an important but sometimes frustrating job. If you have been trying to teach an autistic child to read with little or no success, or if you are thinking about starting to teach an autistic child to read, this article can give you some fresh ideas. Instructions Take a good inventory of how the child learns and what makes the child overwhelmed. Many children with autism spectrum disorders can be overwhelmed by their senses, whether it's from bright colors, strong smells or even noise. You must know the child's favorite things; this can be the key to teaching the child to read.
2. Learning-Speech, language and communication skills support children’s learning development as they will be able to talk about experiences and what they have learnt during the day. Emotional- This is supported because as the child gets older and their language and communication skills develop they can express their needs. Also you may notice that the child as it gets older is less frustrated as they will be able to express how they are feeling by using words instead of throwing a tantrum. Behaviour- Speech, language and communication skills support children’s learning development as children find it hard to control their behaviour but once language is present they seem to have more control and it is thought that may be children think their behaviour through also they focus on the consequences of their actions.
Pictures: Pictures are used alongside words to make communication more easier and understandable. In fact in my placement school, the reading scheme that is used starts the children off with ‘picture only’ books so the children are encouraged to talk about the pictures in the book and make their own story up and ask questions. Technology: Computer programmes (apps and games), interactive whiteboard, story tapes, cds are all ways of stimulating a child’s communication development. These days a lot of programmes are interactive and children can hear and respond to different applications made specially to help develop their
Positive messages about their families, background, cultures and languages help children to develop pride in who they are. These messages also give them confidence to voice their views and opinions, to make choices, and to help shape their learning. The book ‘Possum Magic’ would be appropriate for Stage 1 (Year 1) students. I feel for the desired outcome this is a great age for building confident exercises and to help develop the child’s identity and to introduce an open mind thinking. 2.
Visual learners need to see things in order to learn, aural learners are better when they hear the information, and reading/writing learners perform best reading information and writing it down. Kinesthetic learners are more hands on learners. A number of questions are asked on the webpage and determining on the way the questions are answered, it then scores the individual in each category. The VARK will show the individual’s scores in each area and the highest score is considered to be their best learning style. It then provides ideas in each category that demonstrates effective learning strategies that may be helpful based on their results.

• Teachers need to regularly and systematically use multiple indicators to assess and monitor children’s progress in reading and writing. The research-based statement stresses that for children to become skilled readers, they need to develop a rich language and conceptual knowledge base, a broad and deep vocabulary, and verbal reasoning abilities to understand messages conveyed through print. At the same time, it recognizes that children also must develop code-related skills: an understanding that spoken words are composed of smaller elements of speech (phonological awareness), the idea that letters represent these sounds (the alphabetic principle), and the knowledge that there are systematic correspondences between sounds and spellings. But to attain a high level of skill, young children need many opportunities to develop these strands interactively, not in isolation. Meaning, not sounds or letters, drives children’s earliest experiences with print.
