A Reading-for-Pleasure Project for HEP Primary Schools
These workshops are for teachers who have already registered for the full project.
This is the third of five sessions for Nursery/Early Years practitioners.
In this session, you will set up twilight network sessions for Spring and Summer 2022 which Charlotte will lead.
What is it?
- 10 minutes – once a week ‘Contingent talk with a book’ sessions with a trained adult.
- A simple child- centred approach to language learning through talk contingent on the child’s interest based around a book chosen by the child.
- At least a term’s commitment to providing ‘Contingent talk with a book’ to each child chosen for the programme.
- It will also be an opportunity to identify colleagues who will be involved in the training sessions.
Impact:
- Shared reading has a positive impact in children’s language development.
- Dialogic reading styles are more effective at boosting children’s language development than a simple, storytelling narrative style.
- Interventions based on dialogic reading styles have a positive impact on children’s expressive vocabulary.
