Classroom assistants are increasingly relied upon to support the
most needy pupils, and they have had significantly less training
than their colleagues with qualified teacher status. It is clear
that these assistants need some very practical materials. This book
provides photocopiable resources so that classroom assistants can
get to work. The book covers all they need to know about literacy,
it explains in very simple terms what is expected from them and:
*how the National Literacy Strategy works *how to support reading,
writing and spelling *how to select fiction and non-fiction *how to
help children use computers It also covers issues such as: *how to
help children for whom English is not their first language *how to
help children with special needs *how to set targets and monitor
progress. As well as providing an invaluable manual for assistants,
Supporting Literacy will be useful for SENCOs and English
Co-ordinators who are training support staff and volunteers in
primary schools. Learning Support Assistants and others following
recognised courses (eg Specialist Teacher's Assistants) will find
the book helpful in the study of children's literacy.
