TESTIMONIALS & RECOMMENDATIONS
“This course was super helpful. I am a teaching Foundation for the first time and didn't feel well equipped with teaching my students how to read and write. This course covers so many strategies, learning sequences and activity examples. Highly recommend this course for all Foundation and Junior teachers. ”
Megan Warby“Well-paced informative PD. Has given me some clear strategies to use in the classroom. Fits in well with Visible Learning and Effective Feedback. Highly recommend it:)))) ”
Angela Shepherd“The course was easy to understand, lot's of examples and I especially loved that along with the video, you had the option to print up lecture notes. Diana is very descriptive and easy to listen to. This course has really enhanced my teaching methods. ”
Sarah Craig“As an Early Childhood Educator having studied a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, I was not exposed to teaching Pre- literacy during my studies. However, once I entered the industry I realised how important it was that I educate myself and develop my knowledge in this area. I wanted to develop my skills and knowledge about pre-literacy, and have a greater understanding of what Synesthetic phonics, Phonological Awareness and Phonemic Awareness. This course was easy to follow; it was delivered in a very clear and broken down manner. I feel confident that I can develop a Pre-literacy program and also the skills to detect children that maybe at risk of needing extra help and time to develop there confident and pre-literacy skills . I would highly recommend this course .”
Andrea Key“Hello, My name is Francesca and I have just completed the online PD. The information presented to clear, well sequenced and demonstrated in a way that can be easily applied to my classroom. Your approach 'teach less but better' I think is absolutely wonderful! and I am keen to apply my learning to not only spelling but all other areas of the curriculum. Francesca”
Francesca“I did this online Seminar in one day as I was so excited. I had completed the Phonic Sequence Placement test on a little year 4 girl who's mum had begged me to do some coaching 2 days before I began the seminar. We knew she had some gaps and needed to find where? After marking the assessment I now know she has missed all the stage 3 spelling patterns. I can't wait to start re-teaching what she has missed using these resources and activities. The Monday after completing the course I administered the test on my year 1s and started teaching them the very next day how to write the sounds with 2 colours. WOW this strategy really worked with my struggling year 1s. It is my new favourite thing to do for spelling. ”
Jackie Riches“This PD provides time effective tasks for assessment and monitoring progress. In addition, it shows clear, practical and easily implemented strategies that teachers can to take to manage students either learning to read and write or presenting with difficulties with literacy. It is based on current theory and assessment tasks and strategies demonstrated are suitable for all students in all classrooms, regardless of the synthetic phonics program they are using at their school. ”
