Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills For 4 Year Olds
Oral language preparation for writing including show and tell, activity retells & news telling.
Initially, all four-year-olds will require support with activity retells. However if after a period of teaching they appear anxious or produce inadequate information then they may need additional support and repetition to further develop their skills. That’s why we have created Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 4-Year-Olds. For students with delayed language it is recommended that concrete visual aids are used to assist in the organisation and sequence of the news telling. Initially, the retells will need to occur directly after the activity, this way the materials are still present to be used as visual cues and the sequence is relatively fresh. Before commencing the activity it is recommended that the task is demonstrated step by step and explained using the language that is to be targeted in the retelling by the students. This program has been developed by Speech Pathologists for use in the classroom or home instruction, to help parents and teachers instruct 4-year-olds oral language skills in the following areas: activity retells, show and tell (or object descriptions) and event-based news. Includes: Instructions for how to implement at a whole class, small group and individual level. Pre-tests and post tests-to review progress and to determine the children who would benefit from visits to a Speech Pathologist Supporting cards and posts included Instruction manual (78 pages) 3 sets of A5 colour cards 5 x A3 colour posters The programs within the range include: Early Years Programs: Picture Book Retelling – Step 1 Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 4 Year Olds Foundation Programs: Picture Book Retelling – Step 2 Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 5 Year Olds Year 1 & 2 Program: Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 1 Year 3, 4, 5 & 6 Program Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 2 This product is mentioned in the Early Years Teaching Sequence Manual on page 5 & 6.

Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 5 Year Olds
Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills is an instruction manual with explicit details on how to develop show and tell, activity retells and news telling for 5 year olds
As children enter school as five-year-olds they continue to make the steps that move them from conversations to literate language. This can be a daunting step for all involved but Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills is designed to make the journey easier. The strategies used in this book are linked to later developing narrative skills, just as pre-literacy skills are the foundation skills for spelling and reading development. It is critical that teachers and parents assist children in the development of language and narrative skills as they are a crucial component and predictor of later interpretative reading and writing success. Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills attempts to break down news and early narrative skills into simple sequential steps for teachers and parents to follow with children. The program trains parents and teachers to identify where children need to develop and strengthen their skills and presents specific techniques and supports to do so. The program provides simple activities and visual cues that are designed to be incorporated into classroom and home environments utilising activities that occur every day. The program provides: assessment and monitoring procedures planning and programming supports visual supports and activity ideas techniques and strategies to develop and accelerate language skills. News telling is a challenge for students and teachers, however, practice is the key and the more students are exposed to the language associated with telling news the more their expressive language will improve.

Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 1
Instructional material outlining how to teach 6 to 8 year olds narrative oral retelling, rewriting and generation.
Although there are many types of genres, the most complex genre is narrative. The production of a narrative is more cognitively and linguistically demanding than participation in a conversation. Research repeatedly reports that narrative programs positively impact overall reading comprehension and written expression ability. Hence once skills are developed in this area, there is a flow on effect to all other forms of comprehension and written work. Within Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 1 the initial oral stage is incredibly important. From a Speech Pathology perspective, oral expression ability is the precursor to written expression ability. Too often students are required to generate narratives before solid foundation skills are established. Remember students need to be provided with multiple opportunities to analyse and orally retell familiar narratives. In this way, they are rehearsing and practicing their oral language skills and simultaneously developing a solid understanding of narrative structure. Remember do not underestimate the value of the initial oral stages of narrative skills development. This program, designed by Speech Pathologists for 6 to 8 year olds features: Narrative tasks are presented in an order of ascending complexity (i.e. pre-narrative, oral narrative retells, written narrative retells and finally narrative generation). The manual outlines how to instruct 6 to 8 year old narrative ability and recommends over 45 suitable picture books. The classroom pack includes explicit narrative structure cards and display posters The programs within the range include: Early Years Programs: Picture Book Retelling – Step 1 Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 4 Year Olds Foundation Programs: Picture Book Retelling – Step 2 Developing News Telling and Narrative Skills for 5 Year Olds Year 1 & 2 Program: Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 1 Year 3, 4, 5 & 6 Program Connecting Oral and Written Language – Step 2 This product is mentioned in the Year 1 & 2 Teaching Sequence Manual on page 20.

Comprehension Questions for 8 and 9 Year Olds
Picture Book Program for 8 & 9 Year Olds: Perfect for Home or School
Comprehension Questions for 8 & 9 Year Olds is a home or school resource designed to support oral language development in young children. From a young age, children should be verbal, actively engage in social interactions and understand simple, literal questions about their surroundings. By age 8 and 9, children further develop their focus on answering complex questions requiring prediction, interpretation and evaluation. This program, developed by speech pathologists, supports the development of these foundational comprehension skills using engaging picture books to ask age-appropriate questions and assess oral responses. Oral language skills are critical for social interaction and academic success. Program Includes: Picture Book Recommendations: List of developmentally appropriate Picture Book recommendations, such as 'The Gruffalo', 'The Giving Tree' and 'Diary of a Womat'. 33 Question Cards for Repeated Reading Sessions: Each card contains sample questions (over four days) and model answers based on each recommended picture book. Questions are focused on encouraging students to predict, to interpret and to evaluate, such as 'Why do you think…?' 'How do you think the girl would feel?' or 'Why do you like that one best?'
