#051 The Literacy Big 6 Series, 1. Oral Language

Over the next six weeks I would like to take you through the 6 components that every Science Based reading program should have. Known as the Literacy Big 6, these recommendations are the result of three international reviews commissioned by the Governments in the US, UK and Australia, in an attempt to provide teachers with ‘best practice’ for teaching children to read.  

In this episode I share with you the first component of the Literacy Big 6, Oral Language, that can sometimes get overlooked in a foundation classroom, to the detriment of our most vulnerable learners. 

Join me as I unpack expressive and receptive language, phonological awareness and speech rhythms.
