Pre-CVC Entry to Year 1 & 2 Classes Pack
Code: EY12LE
Year Level: Year 1 & 2
$264.00 (inc. $18.92 GST)
When students enter Year 1 and 2 with very low literacy skills it can be very confronting for teachers. While some students can be assigned CVC (or Stage 1 Target 1) reading, spelling and writing tasks, for a proportion of students this will not be appropriate as pre-literacy skills require instruction. In order to progress into and through Stage 1 Target 1, students must have mastered the following:
- The phonemic awareness skill of blending three phonemes, which is a prerequisite skill of decoding
- The phonemic awareness skill of segmentation, which is a prerequisite skill of spelling
- Alphabet sound recall
PLD has created a bundle of resources specifically for this purpose, including:
- Teach a Child to read in 3 steps
- Teach a Child to spell in 3 steps
- Alphabet Letter Sounds
- CVC Reading, Spelling and Writing Tasks
The other programs within the range include:
