Part 1 of this podcast on Shared Reading features special guest, Diane Snowball, a highly experienced educator in Australia, with classroom teaching expertise and for many years providing professional development for teachers and educational leaders. Diane explores the concept of Shared Reading and its significance in teaching young children how to read.Diane begins by discussing her recent experience working with Grade 1 teachers in Melbourne, specifically focusing on shared reading. She emphasizes the importance of shared reading as a fundamental teaching strategy that helps children develop their reading skills and understanding of print.The conversation delves into various aspects of Shared Reading including what makes a text suitable for Shared Reading, the benefits of using rhyme, repetition, and rhythm in Shared Reading texts, and how children can transition from being read to by adults to reading independently. Diane highlights the role of Shared Reading in building children's comprehension skills and fostering their love for reading.The podcast also touches on the practice of introducing a new text for Shared Reading and the role of the teacher in guiding children during this process. Diane emphasises that Shared Reading is not just about enjoyment but also serves as a powerful tool for teaching children how to read and understand written language.Additionally, Diane discusses how Shared Reading can benefit children from diverse linguistic backgrounds, helping them learn English while also developing their reading and writing skills.Shared Reading involves reading aloud to children while they see the printed text. The benefits of this approach are highlighted, particularly in helping children develop a one-to-one match between spoken words and printed text, a crucial concept in early literacy. The podcast emphasises the need for children to actively engage in reading by joining in with the text. Selecting appropriate books for Shared Reading is also a key consideration, ensuring that they are suitable for the children's reading abilities. The importance of keeping these books accessible in the classroom and reusing them for sustained periods is stressed. The ultimate goal is to make Shared Reading an enjoyable and engaging experience that motivates children to read more.Overall, the podcast offers valuable insights into the importance of shared reading as a pedagogical approach in early childhood education, emphasizing its role in language development, comprehension, and fostering a lifelong love for reading and learning.NEW RESOURCESShared Reading: Basics for Teachers, F-2 (Teachific)Shared Reading: Implementation Guide for Teachers, F-2 (Teachific) JOIN CUE LEARNING'S NEXT LIVE WEBINAR!Join our upcoming events, and try our online courses Explore our extensive PDF resources.Got any questions?

In this second part of the podcast, Sharon and team, and their guest, Grace, delve into various strategies for nurturing writing skills in Foundation year students. One key concept introduced is the use of "sentence stems." These stems provide young children with simple sentence starters, helping them initiate their writing and incorporate high-frequency words. The ultimate aim is to develop reading and writing fluency with 25+ high-frequency words by the end of the Foundation year.The importance of a "word wall" is discussed, enabling students to independently reference high-frequency words and take ownership of their spelling. Alphabet strips and individualised tools for letter formation are introduced, allowing students to practise and reinforce their letter-writing skills and fostering a sense of ownership.Grace and her students have transitioned from single-page writing to creating books, instilling a sense of authenticity and pride in their work. They've even turned a class project into a physical book to be shared.The concept of allowing students to continue working on their writing or adding more details to their drawings when they finish quickly is highlighted. This approach keeps students engaged and prevents rushing through their work to gain free time.Sharing and reflecting on their writing is emphasised, with shared reading and paired reading, encouraging students to take pride in their work and strive for improvement.Throughout the podcast, Grace underscores the value of mentor texts, where authors serve as teachers for young writers. Literature is used to inspire students and showcase excellent writing examples, encouraging them to draw from these texts to enhance their own writing.The hosts stress the significance of creating a positive learning culture and focusing on individual student progress rather than rigidly predefined goals. This approach fosters independence and a love for writing.The podcast also presents ten key elements for teaching writing, such as building confidence in drawing and writing, generating writing ideas, self-evaluation, promoting independent work, exploring techniques from other writers, and self-identifying as a writer. They emphasise the importance of fostering a classroom environment where students are enthusiastic about writing and deeply connected to the content.Grace's commitment to professional development and her thoughtful classroom choices are commended. In summary, the podcast highlights the transformative power of recognising children as writers, enabling students to view themselves as writers, and nurturing their writing skills through a combination of strategies and a supportive, encouraging learning environment.RESOURCESAnalysing Early Writing: Spelling, F-2 (Teachific) JOIN CUE LEARNING'S NEXT LIVE WEBINAR!Join our upcoming Zoom event.and online courses can be found here.Other matching PDF resources are here.Got any questions?

In this podcast, literacy expert Sharon Callen and team welcome special guest Grace Cullen, a Foundation/ Reception teacher at Littlehampton Primary School. They discuss the challenges and strategies for teaching early writing to young students. Grace shares her experience transitioning from a structured program to a more student-centred approach to writing.Grace emphasises the importance of tapping into students' interests to ignite their passion for writing. She found that when children have something they genuinely want to write about, the floodgates of creativity open. She also highlights the significance of valuing and publishing students' work, giving them a real sense of being writers and sharing their creations with an audience.The conversation touches on the curriculum and how it encourages students to view themselves as writers who can communicate their thoughts, feelings, and ideas. The curriculum aims to help students create short written texts, encouraging them to use words and phrases from their learning and develop foundational writing skills.Grace and Sharon also discuss the use of mentor texts, anchor charts, and student-created resources in the classroom to support young writers. The side-by-side coaching model is recognised as a valuable tool for helping teachers navigate the transition to student-centred writing instruction.The speakers emphasise the importance of enabling students to notice, explore, and engage with literature to develop their writing abilities. By using books as tools to introduce new sounds and patterns, they encourage students to become word 'noticers'. Their approach emphasises fostering bravery, resilience, and intentionality in writing, providing young learners with a strong foundation for their future educational journeys. Additionally, they incorporate phonics knowledge and the multi-sound capabilities of letters to support students at various learning levels.Overall, the podcast underscores the importance of fostering a love of writing by connecting it to students' interests, providing independence through classroom resources, and using the curriculum as a guideline while adapting to students' needs and abilities. The goal is to empower young students to see themselves as capable and enthusiastic writers.JOIN CUE LEARNING'S NEXT LIVE WEBINAR!Join our upcoming Zoom event.and online courses can be found here.Other matching PDF resources are here.Got any questions?

In Part 1 of this podcast, expert educators Diane Snowball and Keay Cobbin discuss the science of reading. They emphasise that the science of reading is a term used by various educational communities and can have different interpretations. They provide definitions from reputable sources, highlighting that it encompasses multidisciplinary knowledge from educators, linguistics, cognitive psychology, special education, and neuroscience about how children learn to read.They discuss common misconceptions, such as equating the science of reading with a specific phonics program, and the challenges this can create in education. They emphasise the importance of continually updating knowledge because the science of reading is always evolving.The podcast also delves into different models of the reading process, including the Simple View of Reading, Scarborough's Reading Rope, and the Active View of Reading. These models are seen as valuable tools for understanding reading but are not a one-size-fits-all solution. The discussion highlights that teachers need strong content knowledge and pedagogical skills to apply these models effectively in the classroom.Keay and Diane then discuss the importance of providing students with independent reading and writing time. They stress the need for explicit instruction during this time, ensuring that students understand how to apply what they learn in their own reading and writing. They reference the National Reading Panel's five major components for successful reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. They highlight the significance of providing balance in a reading program that integrates systematic phonics instruction with other reading elements. Vocabulary instruction is discussed, with an emphasis on morphology and building vocabulary through reading. The evolving understanding of these components over time is acknowledged.Overall, the podcast emphasises the importance of staying informed about the evolving science of reading and using this knowledge to inform teaching practices tailored to the needs of individual students.

Engagement and the teacher's role in modelling and demonstrating actions for learning are also discussed as vital elements for effective teaching.The seventh-ranked podcast, "How to Group Students Effectively for Learning" with Diane Snowball, explores the concept of flexible grouping. The hosts emphasise the need for teachers to group students based on their specific learning needs rather than fixed, long-term groups.
