4 Step Process Kit: The Months of the Year (PD395)
US$10.00
The 4-Step Process is a method of teaching permanent word storage and increasing knowledge of the writing system. At Lifelong Literacy, this comes down to four consistent steps. This is the 4-Step Process.
Words are abstract concepts that have several forms. They are not shapes to be coloured in, or collections of sticks and curves to be written over and over again. If you are advising a child to write a word repeatedly in an attempt to get them to remember it, then perhaps today is the day you start to replace that technique with something much better.
It starts by taking four steps, all of which are explained in this kit.
Note: Prices are inclusive of 10% Goods and Services Tax (GST) for all Australian residents.
You will also have:
printable templates to help with your lesson planning
student worksheet templates
etymological and orthographic notes on the names for the months of the year, including how they’re written in other languages
a pre-planned set of sheets showing the 4-Step Process for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December.
AGE GROUP FOR MAINSTREAM SCHOOL POPULATIONS
According to our spelling scope and sequence (see the Spelling for Life Online Course), the spelling of the months of the year should be known by children by the end of their fourth year of formal schooling.
