Teaching and Learning Communication, Language and LiteracyTeaching and Learning Communication, Language and Literacy

Ann Browne has written a book that provides support and guidance for both students and practitioners in a range of settings. The whole text manages to combine exploration of theory interwoven with references to documentation followed by practical examples of activities that might foster particular skills, knowledge or understanding.
This text offers sound and detailed guidance on all aspects of communication, language and literacy in the early years. The author's helpful message about nurturing positive attitudes to young children's learning permeates the entire text. This could become one of those books that we all need to own and refer to regularly.

Language Experience Approach to Literacy for Children Learning EnglishLanguage Experience Approach to Literacy for Children Learning English

The instructional framework presented in this book is intended to help teachers provide all young children, but especially English-language learners, with rich, meaningful, and interactive literacy instruction. Referred to as LEALE, the instruction is grounded in the traditional Language Experience Approach (LEA). It has been expanded to encompass principles and practices of research-based early literacy instruction as understood and presented in current professional literature. The approach is presented in an attractive, easily understood style that invites both beginning and experienced teachers to engage their students in literacy.

We often call them the "Dark Ages," the era which spanned the decline and fall of Rome’s western empire and lingered for centuries, a time when the Ancient World was ending and Europe had seemingly vanished into ignorance and shadow, its literacy and urban life declining, its isolation from the rest of the world increasing.
