In person: Oral language: speaking and listening Years R-6

(IN PERSON South Australia) Presented by Bronwyn Parkin. Teachers know that oral language is essential for learning and vocabulary development, and that listening, and speaking are an important part of the Australian Curriculum: English. This is a challenge for all classroom teachers, but particularly teachers of EAL/D and some ATSI students. But how do we choose what language should be the focus of our classroom program, and how do we make it stick?

This workshop explains the role of oral language in learning and will help teachers to include oral language and vocabulary goals as part of each learning area, rather than some separate subject. We will also investigate how teachers’ language and classroom dialogue support the development of oral language.

Date: Friday 9th April  8:30am – 3:00pm

Presenter: Bronwyn Parkin, Literacy consultant and adjunct lecturer in Linguistics University of Adelaide
