Strategies for English Language Learning And Reading
STELLAR & Language Learning • Teaching and learning of English using more speaking and listening activities. • Children learn reading and writing using rich and interesting books, with discussions led by the teacher. 35
A STELLAR Classroom… • Classroom environment is: ☺ focused on children’s interaction rather than on teacher talk. ☺ enriched with children’s written language. ☺ filled with various reading materials for children’s use. 36
What’s done during STELLAR… • Focused Reading using Big Books (SBA) reading for enjoyment reading for knowledge 37
Things pupils learn… i. concepts about print : (i.e. spacing between words, reading from left to right, punctuation) ii. vocabulary (i.e. meaning of words, phrases) iii. word identification activities (i.e. spelling patterns, letter-sound relationships) iv. grammar (i.e. present tense, past tense, singular/plural forms) 38
Other skills learnt • Development of the four language skills listening (reading aloud, instructions) speaking reading (SBA) writing (MLEA, Written Expression) 39
Other skills learnt • Development of social skills: oral interaction among peers in non-threatening situations working in partnership with other children turn taking & respect for others during class discussions 40
