Growing Readers Early Literacy Curriculum, Second Edition

Catalog #: N-P1393SET

ISBN: 978-1-57379-346-9



The Growing Readers small-group activities engage young children in four key areas of early literacy learning: comprehension, phonological awareness, alphabetic principle, and concepts about print. The program focuses on these four aspects of early literacy because of the strong evidence that young children's knowledge of these concepts is a solid predictor of their reading achievement in later years.
 
Growing Readers is designed to be used in all early childhood programs — including but not limited to those using the HighScope educational approach. The curriculum is structured around three basic elements:
  1. Small-group literacy activities at three levels of development
  2. New and classic children's books
  3. Common classroom materials
Together, these three components provide the tools for systematically and specifically supporting the growth of language and literacy in preschool and kindergarten children.
 
The activities in this second edition of Growing Readers are a compilation of the activities in the first-edition kit and the Growing Readers Set 2 activities. This kit also includes a two-year subscription to Letter Links Online. In addition, the cards in this new edition have been reorganized for ease of use.
 
To help you plan and implement the Growing Readers literacy activities and follow-up, each kit contains the following items:
  • Teacher Guide includes complete instructions, background information, Scope and Sequence, Individual and Group Progress Profiles, and Activity Log.
  • 126 Small-Group Activity Cards give detailed instructions for classroom activities.
  • 46 Short Activity and Teaching Strategy Cards describe how to support and integrate literacy throughout the day.
  • 25 Quick Look Cards provide a handy overview of the activities.
  • 13 Vocabulary Cards list new words for children to hear and try out as they look at, listen to, and talk about Growing Readers books and materials.
  • 8 Activity Support Cards describe additional materials, strategies, and techniques.
  • 9 new and classic children's storybooks have been selected for level of complexity, story structure, representation of cultural and ethnic diversity, and illustration quality.
  • Letter Links Online (one license per kit - additional licenses are available for purchase separately) easily and automatically creates children's letter-linked pictures and nametags as well as class lists; allows users to chose from both English and Spanish word sounds and corresponding pictures. E-mail address, first name, and last name of each user are required to receive log-in information.
