  2. What are additional practice exercises for practitioners? • Created specifically for those who work in the early childhood classroom. • Cover the four main components of the CELL early literacy learning model • Utilize the Participatory Adult Learning Strategies (PALS) approach to learning

  3. Additional Practice #1:Everyday Literacy Activities • Make the Early Childhood Interests Assessment form easily accessible by taping it on the wall or using a clipboard. You can get the assessment from our tools page located here. • Informally observe one child during the morning or afternoon for two or three hours. • Write the child’s initials in the areas of interest for that particular child on the form. • Make a list of additional activities that are rich with literacy experiences that were observed and should be on the list.

  4. Additional Evaluation #1:Everyday Literacy Activities • What patterns emerged? What types of activities did the child engage in most frequently? • Of the activities engaged in, what types of informal literacy experiences occurred? • What could you do to make the child’s favorite activities more literacy rich?

  5. Additional Reflection #1:Everyday Literacy Activities • You were asked to note what types of informal literacy experiences occurred while observing a child. • Do you need to create more opportunities for informal literacy learning? • How will you do that? Place this list of opportunities in your lesson plan folder or in the child’s portfolio.

  6. Additional Practice #2:Everyday Literacy Activities • Choose an area of interest noted in Practice 1 of Everyday Literacy Activities. • Create and implement an informal everyday literacy activity related to that particular interest.

  7. Additional Evaluation #2:Everyday Literacy Activities • How often could this activity occur throughout the day? • How could this activity provide opportunities for language learning? • How could this activity provide opportunities for practicing literacy skills?

  8. Additional Reflection #2:Everyday Literacy Activities • What challenges did you face completing this practice? • Why do you think you faced those challenges?

  9. Additional Practice #3:Everyday Literacy Activities • Choose one area of interest noted on the Early Childhood Interests Assessment form. • Based on that area of interest, create a list of interest-based literacy learning activities that you could provide outdoors.

  10. Additional Evaluation #3:Everyday Literacy Activities Were the activities you created informal or formal? How could these activities provide opportunities for language learning? How could these activities provide opportunities for practicing literacy skills?
