Fostering literacy in early years settings

In this webinar, Professor Claire McLachlan explores how literacy can be fostered in early childhood settings.

Some principles for how early literacy can be readily encouraged are examined, along with research that shows which teacher practices are effective for promoting literacy in a play-based curriculum. Issues related to children’s progression towards the learning outcomes in the Communication strand of Te Whāriki and the Literacy Learning Progressions for school entry are also explored.
