Early Years Language Arts

In the Early Years, learning experiences are based on structured play, with language development being an essential component of all activities. Planning is based on the learning strands as set out in the IEYC. 
Language Arts in the Early Years involves activities such as:
  • Listening to stories 
  • Retelling stories
  • Creating and sharing their own stories
  • Role play, imaginative play
  • Songs, chants, nursery rhymes
  • Alphabet recognition
  • Early phonics activities based on letter sound awareness and recognition
  • Enjoying looking at books – being ‘readers’- picture books, big books, electronic books
  • Pre and early writing activities – tracing over a model, making letters with playdough, air writing
So much of the language development in the Early Years is developed through play. Our Early Years practitioners observe children at play and enable the environment with ever changing experiential areas so that the children increasingly express themselves.
