This set of nine user-friendly,beautifully illustrated and
designed,SANLU Picture Dictionaries have been created in an effort
to establish a dictionary culture at an early age by providing a
fun-based educational tool for both learners and teachers. These
dictionaries are vital resources that can contribute to the
development of South Africa languages.
Foundation Phase dictionaries are instrumental in overcomingthe
challenges of making a transition from Home Language, the medium of
instruction in the Foundation Phase, to English First Additional
Language (FAL)in the Intermediate Phase. These dictionaries can
also assist in the development of a Second Additional Language,
making a positive contribution to the Department of Basic
Education’s innovative initiative for the incremental
implementation of African Languages in South Africa.
The Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) for
Foundation Phase clearly states that dictionary work must be done
in both the Home and First Additional Languages, as well as a
Second Additional Language. Dictionary work is requiredin writing,
phonics and reading exercises for both Home Language and First
Additional Language. It can assist in building a word bank and
vocabulary by creating a personal dictionary using initial letters
of words and beginning sounds and developing dictionary and
reference skills.
With these dictionaries SANLU wish to create a building block that
can be used for reference not only in Language, but also in
Mathematics and Life Skills including: Arts, Culture, Science and
Technology.
Dictionaries can be instrumental in confirming a country’s social,
cultural, scientific and technological development. In view of the
constitutional provisions for the development of the rich variety
of the official South African languages, it is essential to bridge
the communication gap that often exists in education. Communication
includes comprehension, which is for reading and listening, and
production, which is for writing and speaking - this ultimately
leads to an understanding. A multilingual country needs bilingual
dictionaries to encourage speakers of these languages to learn each
other’s language. Reliable dictionaries should educate the future
generation to appreciate the language, custom and culture of
others.
This set of nine user-friendly SANLU Picture Dictionaries are
theme-based. These themes are outlined in the CAPS for Foundation
Phase. Each theme is covered over a spread with each word
illustrated as clearly as possible. The themes include the basic
words of objects and actions learners may encounter in everyday
life. Some themes may cover a broader spectrum of words, as to
create a curiosity and interest in the culture and life of South
Africa and elsewhere. Discussion pictures and sentences on most of
the theme spreads make these dictionaries a fun and informative
resource for the classroom. The Index section of each dictionary
lists all the words used in the themes in alphabetical order
separately in both languages with reference to the page number.
