Rainbow in My Head-Wellington 1 October

This one day Early Childhood Workshop Day brings together early childhood educators, including parents.

I will be presenting 3 workshops during the day. The first one with Erin Devlin (Uniquely Kiwi) titled:

“Rhyming: An essential preliteracy skill in early childhood.”

Strategies to assist tamariki discover rhyme through poems, books and puppets.Using rhythm and rhyme as important learning tools with language and literacy links to formal learning.Includes puppetry skills and Kiwana story and rhyme enactments.

The second workshop will be presented twice.

“You need to have it by age 5” Annette Stock

As a child’s adult language has basically developed by age five, parents, caregivers and educators need to have a thorough understanding or oral language development through these first five years. Look closely at oral language development and its wider application as children learn to become competent communicators.
