Why PLDโs Oral Language Programs
PLD has written many programs which can assist in developing strong oral language skills and literacy skills. Speech pathologists have been central to the design of both the literacy and language range. The programs are ideal for first-language English speakers as well as those students whose first language is a language or dialect other than Standard Australian English. By strengthening oral language skills, studentsโ literacy skills will typically benefit.
Implementing PLD in Year 1 & 2
Literacy development is the process of learning to read as well as writing and speaking. In Year 1 & 2 students focus on learning the power of reading to gather information and writing as a way to share ideas with others. Oral reading should transition from a reliance on โsounding outโ to reading in an automatic and fluent manner.ย
PLD titles are based on international research, independently assessed by third parties and constantly updated as new research becomes available. PLDโs evidence-based programs are available in Starter Packs. Each Starter Pack contains a 15% discount. These recommended programs are essential to the successful implementation of the โTeaching Sequencesโ outlined in the Year 1 & 2 Teaching Sequence Manual.
