Language, Learning and Literacy (L3) is a research-based, cost effective Kindergarten classroom intervention, targeting text reading and writing.
Students receive explicit instruction in reading and writing strategies in small groups of three to four selected students. Students then rotate to independent individual or group tasks. This occurs in the daily Literacy session.It has been designed to complement the daily Literacy program for students who do not bring a rich Literacy background to their first year of school.
The program goal is to reduce the need for more intensive and resource demanding programs in future years, including Reading Recovery.
Each year the Curriculum Learning Innovation Centre offers training and support for regional trainers.
The L3 regional trainer-training program will be implemented over 40 days across the school year. It will include workshops, demonstration lessons, supervised practice and on-the-job support.
