ORIENTATION

Video Focus

Each week in the Video Focus, we will feature a clip or series of clips from the HeadsUp! Reading broadcast to highlight key concepts from each class

Review

This week's class provides an overview to HeadsUp! Reading, including an introduction to distance learning and the basic elements of each class. Highlights from this session include:

  • The definition of early literacy
  • The HeadsUp! Reading Mental Model
  • The meaning of code and how it fits into early literacy
  • Using a developmentally appropriate approach when teaching early literacy skills

As you watch the video clip for this week's Video Focus, look for how children are learning about:

  • Communication - talking and listening
  • The sounds of spoken language
  • Letters and words
  • Reading and writing
  • The world around us.
