Multiple Perspectives on Difficulties in Learning Literacy and Numeracy by Claire Wyatt-Smith,John Elkins,Stephanie Gunn Pdf
There are many approaches to researching the difficulties in learning that students experience in the key areas of literacy and numeracy. This book seeks to advance understanding of these difficulties and the interventions that have been used to improve outcomes. The book addresses the sometimes complementary and sometimes contradictory results, and generates new approaches to understanding and serving students with difficulties in literacy and numeracy. The book represents a departure from conventional wisdom as most scholars and graduate students draw upon ideas from only one of the three domains focal in the book and usually from one single or dominant theoretical frame. Typically, readers will affiliate with reading education, mathematics education, or learning disabilities and belong to one of the corresponding professional associations such as IRA, NCTM, or CLD. This book’s scope will open a scholarly forum for engaging readers with a familiarity with one of these domains while providing insight into the others on offer in the book.

EBOOK: Supporting Students with Literacy Difficulties: A Responsive Approach by Ted Glynn,Janice Wearmouth,Mere Berryman Pdf
“Arguably the most common sense, and certainly the most informative, contemporary text onliteracy… Glynn, Wearmouth and Berryman bring a wealth of experience to the field of literacy,culture and family/school collaboration. We are indebted to the authors for putting together such aninformative and groundbreaking text that has overarching relevance in today’s multicultural society.” Dr Gavin Reid, University of Edinburgh, UK “A much needed text to counter the overly psychological approach to teaching literacy. It emphasizes asocio-cultural approach which puts the focus on the interactive, responsive and social elements of thechild learning to read in relation to the world around them.” Wally Penetito, Victoria University, New Zealand In many countries, school populations are becoming increasingly socially and culturally diverse, and delivering effective literacy programmes is becoming more challenging and complex. This book shows schools how to address difficulties with literacy learning experienced by students of diverse backgrounds, by employing strategies that respond to and affirm difference. This ‘responsive approach’ actively engages with students’ prior knowledge and experiences and ensures that these are fully validated in the literacy activities of the classroom. The responsive approach includes members of students' homes and communities collaborating to facilitate their participation in defining and delivering literacy programmes. This book illustrates ways in which teachers and other adults can create responsive social contexts at school and at home, to enable all children to participate fully in reading, writing and oral language activities in the classroom. It offers effective strategies for overcoming barriers to literacy learning, including: Reading tutoring that promotes comprehension and independence Writing partnerships that respond to children’s messages Responsive feedback strategies Interactive contexts that promote student responsibility for learning Community and school collaboration to develop authentic learning tasks Supporting Students with Literacy Difficulties: A Responsive Approach is key reading for teacher education students, practising teachers and parents.

Report on Improving Literacy and Numeracy Achievement in Schools by Northern Ireland. Assembly. Public Accounts Committee Pdf
While there has been progress improving levels of literacy and numeracy over recent years, the pace of this has been slow. Moreover, there is a high concentration of poor outcomes in some schools and a big gap in performance that is partially linked to social deprivation. In addition, there can be a wide variation in the results achieved by schools with apparently similar intakes. Overlaying this, girls generally achieve higher standards than boys across the school sector, and among disadvantaged communities, maintained schools generally outperform schools in the controlled sector. The Committee concluded that the operation of a number of key elements consistently underlies the performance of schools that achieve high standards of literacy and numeracy: a belief that each child can learn and build on basic literacy and numeracy skills regardless of background; convincing evidence which indicates that the greatest improvements in literacy and numeracy skills will come from systematic and sustained intervention in children's early years; the engagement of parents to provide educational development in the home and in local communities; strong leadership and management practices, involving whole-school approaches to the teaching of literacy and numeracy; the provision of quality teaching and learning by teachers who have acquired, during their pre-service teacher training, and in-service professional learning, evidence-based teaching practices that are shown to be effective in meeting the developmental needs of each child; effective school governance based on a balance between supporting and challenging the school leadership team
Merging Numeracy with Literacy Practices for Equity in Multilingual Early Year Settings by Robyn Jorgensen,Mellony Graven Pdf
This book draws on both in and out of school literacy practices with teachers and families to enhance the numeracy of early learners. It provides highly illustrative exemplars, targeted for learners up to approximately eight years of age whose home language differs from the language of instruction. It identifies the challenges faced by these learners and their families, and shares ways of building both literacy and numeracy skills for some of the vulnerable learners nationally and internationally. The book shares the outcomes and strategies for teaching mathematics to early years learners and highlights the importance of literacy practices for learners for whom the language of instruction is different from their home language. Readers will gain a practical sense of how to create contexts, classrooms and practices to scaffold these learners to build robust understandings of mathematics.
