Kindergarten and early Primary teachers.
Think, plan and practice a variety of classroom activities to work with literature in the classroom:
• Verbal and non-verbal responses to a literary text.
• Illustrations.
• Linguistic and literary devices found in short stories.
We are going to read and work with the following stories:
• Little Blue and Little Yellow by Leo Leoni.
• We're Going on a Bear Hunt by Michael Rosen.
• More Pants by Giles Andreae Illustrator Nick Sharratt.
* We will include other literary texts if time allows.
Workshop. Dialogical and interactive approach in which participants will discuss and apply concepts, brainstorm creative teaching ideas and develop supporting teaching materials.
