This
week's Clip of the Week is from the HeadsUp! Reading
class on Playing. The video clip emphasizes the
following key points:
-
Literacy-rich play uses meaningful context to develop
children's literacy skills
- Teachers
take on different roles in children's play depending
on the situation, the needs of the children and the
goals of the teacher
-
Teachers who are intentional about using play to promote
language and literacy goals move in and out of these
roles throughout the day and sometimes within a single
play experience
This
