Implementing Structured Literacy in the Classroom - PART 1: Phonological awareness

This webinar is the 1st in a 3-part series hosted by IDA Ontario - "Implementing structured literacy in the kindergarten classroom - Phonological awareness". In this webinar, Emily Moorhead describes and demonstrated playful phonological and phonemic awareness tasks that move children along a developmental continuum and form a strong oral language foundation for reading. She pays particular attention to the often missed pieces of phonemic awareness and models ways to develop “diagnostic ears,” to differentiate tasks for a range of abilities within a kindergarten classroom setting. She discusses specific strategies and concrete materials for connecting phonological awareness and print. Visit https://www.idaontario.com/profession... for more information on the courses provided. Emily Moorhead (OCT (BAH, B.Ed)) is a teacher at the Limestone District School Board, Kingston, ON. She has been teaching early primary children for seventeen years. Emily learned about structured literacy when her son attended the Kingston Reading Clinic. Emily took training at the Reading Clinic and became deeply engaged in her own learning of structured literacy instruction to ensure that every child is given the tools to become a successful reader.
