  • Summary

  • In the second instalment of the podcast series "Teachers Celebrating Their Students’ Writing," Sharon, Phil, Tamara and Hayley dive into the process of how young Foundation learners transition from recognising words to actively using them in their writing. The episode explores the practical methods teachers employ to reinforce phonics, such as using digraphs like "CK" in words like "back," "duck," and "kick," integrating these into morning messages and playful, decodable sentences that students find amusing and memorable.The discussion highlights the importance of connecting reading and writing in daily routines. The team describe how structured morning activities help students settle into learning, fostering a sense of accomplishment and readiness for the day's word work. By focusing on a specific sound each day, students practise reading, writing, and identifying these sounds in books, which not only reinforces their learning but also brings a sense of discovery and excitement into the classroom.A key theme of the episode is the emphasis on student choice and creativity, particularly in writing. Teachers explain how allowing students to choose topics for nonfiction reports or create their own books, both in school and at home, empowers them to take ownership of their learning. This approach has even led to students creating books outside of class, with families contributing to their children's writing projects.The narrative also touches on the inclusive nature of the classroom, where students of varying abilities are supported and encouraged to participate at their own level. Whether through drawing, tracing, or scribing, every child is recognised as a reader and writer, fostering a community where each student’s progress is celebrated.This episode encapsulates the joy and growth experienced in a classroom where writing is not just an academic exercise but a vibrant, creative outlet for every student.TEACHIFIC RESOURCESSee writing samples from Tamara and Hayley's Foundation classRead the BLOG hereJOIN TEACHIFIC NOW AND SAVE!Join Teachific today.
