Publisher Description: This practical, reader-friendly textbook for preservice and in-service early childhood education and early literacy courses provides how-to-do-it instructions for promoting emergent literacy in reading, writing, and arithmetic from preschool into the primary grades. Early 3 Rs answers the question: What can I SAY and DO to give each child the best possible start on the 3 Rs? With the strategies and materials in this book, a teacher can give personalized direct instruction in the 3 Rs to a beginner, in just a few minutes a day. The early chapters tell how to prepare a young child for reading, writing, and arithmetic. Subsequent chapters show how to give a beginner an early start on learning the 3 Rs. All strategies begin with the oral approach (from phonemic awareness to arithme-talk) and then progress to print that is personally meaningful to a young child. Early 3 Rs: Includes arithmetic as a component of early literacy. Gives developmentally appropriate methods for direct teaching of the 3 Rs. Provides scripts of what the teacher can say to promote early learning. Helps education students in field-based classes offer personalized instruction. Early 3 Rs is written to be very reader friendly: the approach is intentionally eclectic; the writing deliberately avoids heavy theory; the goal is to provide an easy-to-use, highly practical and accessible guide for those who work in early childhood education settings. |
