Literacy Activities for Small Groups

This is an invaluable resource for teachers who wish to foster children’s literacy development by working with small reading groups. The book has been written especially for teachers who want to manage a differentiated literacy program, and who want more focused learning for children in early years of schooling. It covers practical classroom issues such as using text as the stimulus for focused teaching, providing relevant literacy activities, using a management task board, support strategies, assessment and grouping and also provides a four-week plan for getting started. The book provides a range of activities for emergent, early and fluent readers that will allow them to discover new concepts through active exploration and experimentation.
