Everyday Language – Using Language Experience and Shared Book Approach to teach literacy to students with special needs.

AWWA School’s language programme aims to enable our students to learn language in meaningful and engaging ways, towards achieving functional communication and literacy.

Our language programme provides multiple means of engagement, representation and expression, through the different content from our inventory of Kidsread, Keylinks Guided Reading and Starlight books, to meet students’ diverse learning needs and interests.

Our teachers enhance traditional language experience and shared book approaches through the use of adapted resources, modified lesson plans and meaningful everyday experiences where component skills such as listening, speaking, reading and writing are being taught.
