Using Multiliteracies to Support Young Childrens Learning

Literacy is a core and complex part of young children's learning, and can be difficult to teach.  An exploration of approaches to teaching through multiliteracies, this text helps trainee and practising teachers understand and support learners to enable development of their reading and writing skills. Grounded in classroom practice, this practical book shows you how to scaffold children’s literacy using creative and supportive methods, thus avoiding the ‘one size fits all’ approach.  It offers teaching strategies for Multiliteracies (fiction, expository/instructions, poetry, recount) and Multimodalities (reading, writing, speaking, listening, performing, illustrating) and helps to develop a relationship between teacher and learner. Chapter topics include: Socio-dramatic play Collaboration Guided group teaching strategies Integration of genres. Marie Charles is a Senior Researcher at Centre for Formative Assessment Studies (CFAS) in the School of Education, University of Manchester.  Professor Bill Boyle is Director of CFAS in the School of Education, Manchester University.
