What Students Learn in the Foundation School Year
The Foundation school year is one of the most important years of schooling. The ‘Foundation’ year has different names across Australia and refers to Pre-Primary (WA), Kindergarten (NSW/ACT), Preparatory (QLD/VIC/TAS), Reception (SA) and Transition (NT).
In this Foundation school year, students extend their oral language skills into literacy skills, developing the ability to read, spell and write.
The development of literacy in early childhood and into primary school serves as one of the most crucial foundations for a child’s life.
Being able to read, write, speak and listen gives a child invaluable social skills and confidence to become healthy and happy into adulthood.
Literacy development in early years can significantly impact a child’s career and personal happiness, through to becoming a balanced adult with all the necessary skills to cope with daily life.
The below resources provide Foundation teachers with a step-by-step guide to using PLD in the classroom.
