Early 3 Rs - How To Lead Beginners Into Reading, Writing, and Arithme-talk (Paperback)

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.
