Emergent writing skills are the skills a child needs to possess before he/she starts writing independently for his / her own expression. These are pre- writing skills which are generally focused on in a preschool set up. These are important since they ready a child for independent writing. Practice and training related to these emergent skills need to planned and implemented carefully and creatively since these build the child's attitude towards the act of writing. The presentation gives a few sample exercises to aid understanding.

Whole word approach unit 2 hyatt laguyo
The document outlines several principles of the whole-word approach to reading:
1) Reading should involve meaningful words, phrases, and sentences that the child already understands through speech.
2) Children learn language structures like vocabulary and syntax through self-analysis and induction, not direct instruction.
3) Children similarly learn phonological segments of their native language through induction rather than being taught letters and sounds.
4) Reading should be based on a child's understanding of speech, not their ability to produce speech.
Emergent Literacy
This presentation discuss a child's knowledge of reading and writing skills before he/she learns how formally read and write words, as a period of emergent literacy starts at birth and continues through the preschool years and also discuss the involvement of parents and teacher in early literacy.
Module 10: Pedagogy of Languages
Learning Objectives
This module on language pedagogy attempts to support state resource groups / master trainers to—
understand the various aspects of language education viz. nature of language learning, role of language in learning, multilingualism as a resource and a strategy, language-in-education policy, objectives of language teaching in Indian contexts, the ideas and philosophy of National Curriculum Framework-2005;
familiarise teachers with the approach of integrated skills (LSRW) for literacy and language learning, engaging children in context based activities for developing communicative competence of the children, providing authentic texts and assessment as learning approach;
be able to chalk out the learning outcomes and pedagogical process for language teaching-learning for different stages;
sensitise teachers on using various strategies to language teaching which include language skills - listening and speaking, reading, writing, and teaching of grammar, vocabulary and so on;
build an understanding of generic concerns such as knowing the learner, gender issues, special needs, inclusive classroom, school based pre-vocational education and others such pertinent issues;
understand the processes and use the strategies for continuous assessment and the reporting of learning outcomes; and
enable them to build the capacity of teachers in order to achieve learning outcomes stipulated for every class in different subject areas.
Language & Literacy in Early Childhood
This document discusses early language and literacy development in children. It begins by explaining how humans communicate through gestures, facial expressions, and sounds from birth. It then describes the process of learning oral language in the early years through listening, speaking, and using language in everyday situations without formal instruction. The document outlines typical language development milestones in infants and toddlers, from crying and cooing to using single words and simple sentences. It also discusses early literacy development, how children learn about reading and writing through play, and the importance of a print-rich environment. The document provides tips for activities to support language and literacy like flannelboard stories, group time, and setting up a language arts center.
The Alphabetic Principle
This document discusses the phonological processing abilities necessary for reading and spelling in an alphabetic language like English. It identifies three key phonological processing abilities: phonological awareness, phonological memory, and rapid naming. Deficits in these abilities can cause reading disabilities. Phonological awareness involves recognizing and manipulating sounds and is the most instructionally responsive. Tests are recommended to assess students' phonics skills, blending ability, and underlying phonological processing to address weaknesses.
four language skills
This document discusses four language skills - listening, speaking, reading, and writing. It provides information on how to teach each skill. For listening, it recommends giving listening tasks as homework and using videos. For speaking, it suggests role playing and giving opportunities for oral communication. For reading, it advises using simple texts and reading strategies. For writing, it notes copying, filling in blanks, and summarizing. The document concludes that writing and speaking are more complex skills as they require producing new language.
Reading comprehension strategies presentation pp
This document presents several reading comprehension strategies that can be used before, during, and after reading. Some strategies mentioned include KWL charts, think-pair-share, story maps, double-entry journals, and SQ3R (survey, question, read, recite, review). Many resources are provided that explain different strategies and how to implement them, such as websites with lesson plans and activities related to building reading skills. The document encourages reading aloud to students to help improve reading ability and comprehension.
Language acquisition and language learning
Language acquisition occurs subconsciously as children learn their first language through meaningful interaction, without conscious knowledge of rules. Language learning is the result of direct instruction where students have conscious knowledge of the language and can discuss rules, but may not be able to communicate effectively. Both require exposure to the target language, but acquisition is communicative while learning is non-communicative and can lead to memorizing rules without speaking ability.

English Language Teaching Methods
This document discusses various methods and approaches that have been used in English language teaching over time. It begins by defining methodology, approach, curriculum/syllabus, and techniques. It then outlines several historical approaches including the grammar translation method, direct approach, reading approach, and audio-lingual approach. More recent communicative and task-based approaches are also discussed. The document stresses the importance of considering students' needs, instructional constraints, and individual learner differences when selecting an approach.
Direct method ppt
The document discusses the direct method approach to teaching foreign languages. It originated in the late 19th century in response to a need to develop oral proficiency in foreign languages. Key principles of the direct method include conducting classroom instruction solely in the target language without translation, teaching everyday vocabulary through pictures and objects, inductive grammar instruction, and encouraging students to think in the target language. Speaking is taught before reading or writing, and translation is banned. Techniques include reading aloud, question-and-answer exercises, conversation practice, and dictation. The teacher's role is to demonstrate and facilitate without using the native language. The advantages include quick understanding of spoken language and easy conversation skills, while the disadvantages include difficulty learning without relying on
Teaching Methodology " Teaching Grammar"
This document outlines various methods for teaching grammar to students. It discusses introducing grammar concepts, discovering grammar through exercises, and practicing grammar through activities and games. Some examples provided include having students identify parts of speech in sentences, compare adjective forms, answer survey questions to practice verb tenses, and play team games to create sentences using different grammar structures. The goal is to make grammar engaging and encourage students to think about how language works.
Reading and writing Independence
Cooper and Kiger identified five stages of early literacy development: early emergent literacy, emergent literacy, beginning reading and writing, almost fluent reading and writing, and fluent reading and writing. They described the typical behaviors and skills in oral language, reading, and writing at each stage as children progress from full dependence on adults to independence. As learners move through the stages, they gain more oral language skills, reading strategies and comprehension, and writing abilities and independence.
Teaching speaking
Speaking is an interactive process that involves constructing meaning through verbal and non-verbal symbols. It allows people to express thoughts, feelings, and exchange information. Developing fluency requires a focus on accuracy in controlled activities and a focus on interaction in less controlled activities. Teachers can use activities like drills, pair/group work, games and role-plays to provide feedback, correction, and practice to improve students' speaking skills. Prior experience as a listener helps improve performance as a speaker by exposing students to models and helping them understand the challenges of speaking.
Learning grammar for young learner
This document discusses grammar teaching and learning for young foreign language learners. It begins with a conversation between a teacher and student that illustrates how grammar is necessary to precisely express meanings. The document then discusses several key points about grammar teaching: grammar has a place in children's language learning when taught skillfully; grammar learning evolves from chunks of language and meaningful conversations; and grammar can be taught without explicit technical labels. The document also examines the development of learners' internal grammar, the influence of their first language, and trends in grammar teaching approaches. Finally, it proposes techniques for supporting grammar learning, such as noticing activities, structured practice, and introducing metalanguage in a meaningful way.
Speaking skills.finall
These slides deals with Linguistic and one of four primary skills used to teach students.Speech is one of primary skills. Modern educationists are of the view that because of speaking skills we can learn reading and writing skills easily.
Discrete point test 1
1. Discrete point testing refers to testing language skills and components individually, one at a time, such as testing a single grammatical structure.
2. Examples of discrete point tests include multiple choice questions, fill-in-the-blank questions, true/false questions, spelling tests, and tests of phoneme recognition.
3. Discrete point tests are easy to score objectively but take more time and energy to create and do not capture real-world language use.
The whole-language-approach (1)
The whole language approach emerged in the 1970s as a method of teaching children to read. It focuses on learning language as a whole through real communication, reading, and writing for pleasure. In this approach, reading is acquired through trial and error rather than direct instruction, and children are encouraged to guess words from context clues and use invented spelling. Teachers act as facilitators rather than transmitters of knowledge, focusing on students' needs, experiences, and interests to collaboratively create meaning.
Children's pre writing skills-heather n.
This document discusses the development of fine motor skills needed for writing. It explains that hands, forearms, fingers and the brain must work together. The hands and fingers provide strength and dexterity while gripping writing tools. Forearms provide stability. Coordination between hands, fingers and eyes is important. Activities are suggested to encourage development like playing with beads, balls and play dough. Stages of early writing development are outlined from scribbling to forming letters. Developing fine motor skills is important for a child's ability to write.

Teaching grammar to young learners
This document provides guidance on teaching grammar to young learners in a child-friendly way. It discusses that grammar is necessary to express precise meanings, is closely tied to vocabulary, and can be taught through meaningful conversations without explicit labels. The typical development stages of an English-speaking child's language are outlined from 6 weeks to 10 years. Effective techniques for teaching grammar to young learners include noticing new language with puppets, structuring activities like information gaps, and proceduralizing through description and dictogloss activities. Specific techniques recommended are using humor and stories, songs, rhymes, poems, and total physical response.
Foundational Numeracy.pptx
The document discusses approaches to teaching mathematics at the foundational stage. It focuses on developing both higher-order skills like problem-solving and content-specific skills. Teachers should emphasize real-world connections, use concrete examples initially and move to more abstract concepts over time. A four-block approach is recommended: 1) oral math talk, 2) skills teaching, 3) skills practice, and 4) math games. The gradual release of responsibility model shifts responsibility from teacher to students. A variety of pedagogical tools can aid learning, including toys, games, stories and spending time in nature.
Teaching Children to Write from the Start
I have worked for many years in developing teachers of writing: through my work with the Curriculum Study Commission, the National and Northern Virginia Writing Projects, and George Mason Universities Graduate Programs. This is an updated talk on working with preschool children on writing. Special thanks to Janina Lao Admana my daughter's preschool teacher who helped with this presentation.

2. Key aspects of the vision for school mathematics are for children to enjoy rather than fear math, learn important concepts beyond formulas, communicate about math, and see it as meaningful.
3. The teacher's role is to engage every student, help them develop a positive attitude, enjoy math over fearing it, and use more ICT tools for teaching.10 Practical ideas 2
This document provides several strategies to support neurodiverse learners and improve learning for all students. It recommends reducing "catastrophic loss" in working memory through whole-class strategies. Specific strategies include using check sheets, listening frames, modeling, keyword displays, mind maps, and a "Wonder Wall" for student questions. The document emphasizes linking new knowledge to prior knowledge and students' interests. It also stresses the importance of multisensory learning techniques, building "stickability" or retention through visuals, activities, examples from students' lives, and incorporating left and right brain approaches. The overall goal is to make each lesson into a clear "learning journey" that helps students see connections and progress in their understanding.

These skills contribute to the child's ability to hold and use a pencil, and the ability to draw, write, copy, and colour. ... These are the pencil strokes that most letters, numbers and early drawings are comprised of.
