This unique and visionary text is a compilation of fascinating studies conducted in a variety of cross-cultural settings where children learn language and literacy with siblings, grandparents, peers and community members. Focusing on the knowledge and skills of children often invisible to educators, these illuminating studies highlight how children skilfully draw from their varied cultural and linguistic worlds to make sense of new experiences. The vastly experienced team of contributors provide powerful demonstrations of the generative activity of young children and their mediating partners - family members, peers, and community members - as they syncretise languages, literacies and cultural practices from varied contexts. Through studies grounded in home, school, community school, nursery and church settings, we see how children create for themselves radical forms of teaching and learning in ways that are not typically recognised, understood or valued in schools. This book will be invaluable reading for teachers, teacher educators, researchers and policy-makers who seek to understand the many pathways to literacy and use that knowledge to affect real change in schools.

This text recognizes that there is no simple way to develop literacy. It begins with the central premise that literacy is not simply a cognitive process, but a set of social practices used in socio-cultural contexts, and argues that literacy learners come to school with unique social histories that need to be recognised in the programmes devised to facilitate learning. Cairney claims that literacy is not a unitary social practice and suggests that there are many forms of literacy, each with specific purposes and contexts in which they are used. The author provides a look at the many practical classroom strategies and practices that are necessary to recognize multiple pathways to literacy.

In The Power of Pictures book and companion DVD, Beth Olshansky introduces teachers to her innovative art-based approach to literacy instruction. Widely practiced in classrooms across the country, the model has been proven by research to improve literacy achievement with a wide range of learners, especially those who struggle with verbal skills. At the heart of her approach is the Artists/Writers Workshop. Through study of quality picture books and hands-on art experiences, students learn to visualize, “paint pictures with words,” and ultimately create their own extraordinary artistic and literary work. The book and DVD explain how any teacher can successfully use this process to enable all students, particularly low performers, to make dramatic gains in both reading and writing.

Now in its fifth edition, Reading Pathways (with help from Dewey the Bookwormâ?¢) offers an easy-to-use, highly effective approach to teaching reading accuracy and fluency to students of all ages, using a unique pyramid format. Reading pyramids begins with one word, and slowly build into phrases and sentences of gradually increasing complexity. As the student moves from the pinnacle to the base of each pyramid, the phrase or sentence becomes a more interesting and expansive, and the student's confidence grows with each line completed. Progressively building up the amount of text per line increases eye span, strengthens eye tracking, and develops reading fluency. The book also features more challenging multi-syllable word pyramid exercises and games to further develop fluency and vocabulary. Learning to read long words by syllables removes the fear and mystique of multi-syllable words and helps students build the strong vocabulary so critical for success in reading and writing.

"The Storybook Journey: Pathways to Learning through Story and Play" is based on a solid understanding of how children develop. It is intended to inspire practices that support and enhance the growth of each individual child within the context of the group through children's stories. The suggested starting place in the journey is selection and discussion of a story from children's literature (its main ideas, concepts, significant aspects, appeal, and special meaning to individual children) and a brainstorming of ideas that will link facets of the story to the lives of the children. Teachers link the experiences in the classroom around the story concepts, careful observation of the children, and the gathering of necessary props and materials for the facilitation of the journey. The connections to the child's home, community and classroom play a critical role. Some children, such as those with autism, may create an inner world around a struggle or a story of struggle. Through the stories they choose, we may hear or see a glimpse into their world and learn how to move closer to support them. The emotional stability nurtured by caring adults in their lives allows children the freedom and energy they deserve to be able to concentrate, engage, learn, follow through and enjoy the world that is out there for them to explore. When families are a part of the Storybook Journey process, children experience the enriching and vital daily life extensions of the stories beyond the classroom. The Storybook Journey is neither a unit plan detached from the lives of children, nor a series of recipes developed by adults. Its uniqueness lies in its intention to give teachers enough content and inspiration that their own creativity and enjoyment of the Storybook Journey process will carry them, the children, and the children's families to new and interesting avenues of learning.
