Extending Literacy Skills (Level 5)

Our Extending Literacy group supports children in their development of literacy skills for reading and spelling more complex words. Children enrolled in this intensive group will participate in fun, meaningful activities drawn from evidenced-based approaches including Sounds-Write.

Skills covered will include:

  • Review multisyllabic word reading and spelling
  • Extending knowledge of long vowel rules
  • Using word structure for reading and spelling complex words (e.g. prefixes, suffixes and morphology)
  • Sit and attend in a small group setting for 10 minutes
  • Able to read and write in sentences or above
  • Knowledge of some common long vowel rules and principles of reading/spelling multisyllabic words
  • Use sentences to communicate needs, wants and ideas
  • Independently move around a room without the need for physical support
  • Follow simple 2 step instructions and above
  • Independently perform self-care activities including toileting, hand hygiene and dressing post toileting
  • Able to separate from parent/carer and participate in group activities for 2-3 hours

Our approach is inclusive. If your child has difficulties with some of these skills, they may still be able to attend. Please discuss suitability with your individual clinician or contact the ACM office to discuss available supports and accommodations.
