Longworth Education Conference: Teaching literacy through play

 Developing literacy through play: creating invitations and story tables by Linda Cheer 


Giving our time, slowing things down, take the time to have fun 


Joyful Reading/writing 

Social learning theory

Not about how we teach, but how we learn 

Constructing from inside 


What knowledge does the child already have that we can build upon 

They are not recipients of knowledge 


Literacy teaching is more than just doing group teaching. 


Shared reading

Shared writing 

More time on developing their oral language 

Gift language and facilitate new experiences 


Signs: go, stop, arrows 

Clipboards and pens 

Whiteboards 


Writing tools and loose parts 

Vocab cards 


Reading to myself 

Talking about pictures and sharing their experiences 

Writing in shaving cream 

Paintbrushes and water 

3B1 notebooks 


Dramatic play in the classroom 


Story tables with different things with a picture book.
