Ideas
Posted on the Discussion Board from Previous Classes:
Topic: Share
a good idea about adding materials to your environment
to support early literacy. What did you add and how
did children respond?
"Today
we got out an old fashioned clip board and took it
outside for dictating stories. It was such a beautiful
day. Five children told and illustrated stories about
their pets."
"We
use clipboards too. I've always carried one around
to keep up with assessment, and the kids love to
follow me around with theirs, and take notes too.
(3 - 5 year olds)"
"I
added several new kinds and colors of paper, to pique
their interest. Today a child decided to write a
book on the new paper, and she got several of her
friends to contribute a page or two. Then she got
the hole punch, asked me to help punch holes, and
then tied the sheets together and put it into our
library. At circle time, she 'read' the book to the
class, and had her friends read their pages."
"After
reading the book, Goldilocks and The Three Bears," the "Dramatic
Play" center would have the following props
in it: 3 different sized bowls, 3 chairs/rockers,
and 3 sheets of paper decorated as and long enough
to represent beds. While playing in this area, the
children would be encouraged to recreate the story.
If the children wished, they could role play the
story to the class with one child being the narrator
and the other children being the actors/actresses."
