Pre-Reading & Pre-Writing Skills Book ✓ In Stock

Before children begin formal reading and writing, there is a suite of readiness skills that they need to complete as part of their preparation.From visual and auditory discrimination exercises, to orientation, motor and handwriting skills development, there are many things a child needs to do to get ready for reading and writing, and we cover them all in this book.Additionally, it is important that children experience a rich collection of enjoyable stories that will fire their imaginations, provide enjoyment, build story knowledge and enrich their vocabulary and language experience. Over the coming months children will receive at least one book a week to take home and have read to them by an adult. The title, and date read, is then recorded by the adult in the grids on pages 4 & 5.Nursery Rhymes (pages 18,19 & 20) play an important part in children’s language development. They should be learned off over time and recited together weekly, where children come to know and understand rhyme & rhythms, syllables & phonemes, as they playfully recite the rhymes.As children progress closer to beginning learning their letter sounds, such as s, a, t, i, p and n etc., reciting Tongue Ticklers together becomes a great way to focus on and embed each phoneme sound – see page 60. These sentences should be recited over and over again.Finally, we hope all will enjoy completing the skill building activities we have assembled here.Let the preparation for reading and writing commence!

What is Beautiful in the Sky: A book about endings and beginnings ✓ In Stock

'In these strange days Michael Harding's route taking and wise words gently nudge us towards the future, steadying us as we navigate the great unknowns ahead' Joe Duffy The bestselling new book from acclaimed writer and Irish Times columnist. It's dawn and in the early morning light, Michael Harding is walking in his garden in the hills above Lough Allen in Leitrim, dreaming of the new beginning in Donegal he had planned before the world changed in the early months of 2020. Here, in his stunning and intimate new book, we travel with Michael through this day as he looks back at a life lived within, and as part of, the Irish landscape. In doing so, he vividly brings to life what is at the heart of Irish identity: storytelling, love and human connection. With honesty, insight and tenderness, he shows that while everything has changed, that which is important remains the same; and how, in this new world, we can live with hope and faith in everything that is beautiful in the sky. What is Beautiful in the Sky is an account of our times: a record of our past and a promise of new beginnings. 'This morning is special. The air is cleaner than it used to be. Birds sing with a deeper resonance. The apple trees shed their petals and fatten their fruit with an astonishing defiance; as if nature itself carried a coded message; everything will be OK in the end. Hope may seem lost with each new death but love has become more visible in every hospital corridor in the world. "Let's begin again."
