In this podcast episode Sharon covers a range of literacy learning insights and strategies, including:
“How do I engage every child in literacy learning?”
With literacy learning, what do teachers want? They want their kids to be engaged. They want to cater for all abilities and motivations.
Our approaches to literacy learning
It’s not about a blanket program that works for all. Not every child is the same. Some approaches are better than others – Sharon has discovered this over years of teaching.
In the Cue toolkit, revealed to you on this podcast, there are some great tools and techniques that will enhance these approaches.
How do we know which approaches work best?
Over the years, Sharon has seen first hand the increase in engagement of the kids in their classes and those they work with. When students own their own learning, they are more engaged.
Sharon talks about the three selves – self-motivated, self-regulated, self-directed.
This is just a broad start!
