Essential Year 3 and 4 Literacy Starter Pack

Code: EY34L
Year Level: Years 3 to 6

The Essential Year 3 and 4 Literacy Starter Pack will cover teaching Stage 3 and 4 words in reading, spelling and transferring phonic concepts into extended writing.

In Years 3 and 4, there will typically be a significant range in student ability in most classrooms. Some students will still present with junior primary levels and require targeted Structured Synthetic Phonics (SSP) instruction.

Other students will present with average or advanced skills and require phonic-based word study that progresses from analysing words at the individual sound (or phoneme) level to syllabic spelling with a focus on prefixes, suffixes and word knowledge as the vocabulary of the words become sophisticated.

By the end of Year 3 and 4, the average student should be able to:

  • Read and spell the majority of the Stage 3 and 4 words.ย 
  • Fairly consistently transfer Stage 3 and 4 phonic concepts into extended writing.ย 
  • Understand the meaning of the spelling words and be able to apply them in extended writing.

Following PLD’s SSP approach, we have combined 4 of our essential literacy resources in the Essential Year 3 and 4 Literacy Starter Pack.

About PLD Literacy in the Middle & Upper Primaryย 

PLD provides an Australian, evidence-based approach to Structured Synthetic Phonics (SSP) for primary school educators. Aligned with the Science of Reading, PLDโ€™s SSP approach extends from the junior primary years through to the upper primary years and thereby facilitating a whole school approach.

PLDโ€™s method is derived from the disciplines of speech pathology, occupational therapy and education. As an Australian publisher and professional development provider, PLD advocates that literacy and learning outcomes are maximised for children when their literacy, oral language and movement and motor skills are targeted.

Typically there is a significant range of ability in the majority of middle and upper primary classrooms. Some students will present with junior primary skills, while others will be above their age-related peers.

Supporting students who are experiencing difficulty, while extending students who are more than capable, is central to PLDโ€™s Structured Synthetic Phonic (SSP) offering.
