  3. Using the gospel values as the anchor for literacy learning, we are committed to assisting students to become confident and reflective readers and writers who apply Catholic values to life's opportunities, challenges and choices. Those who use literacy take it for granted - but those who cannot use it are excluded from much communication in today's world. Indeed, it is the excluded who can best appreciate the notion of literacy as freedom. UNESCO, Statement for the United Nations Literacy Decade, 2003-2012

  12. Use the 5 finger rule when you choose abook to read! • Read a page in the middle of the book. • Put up one finger for every “clunk” you have. 0 fingers – too easy 1-3 fingers – just right 4-5 fingers - quite hard 5+ too hard for now

  13. When I come to a word I don’t know……

  14. I look at the pictures. • I make the first sound. • I slide my finger under the word. • I look inside the word for parts I know. • I blend the parts together. • I skip the word and read to the end of the sentence. • I go back and re-read asking myself: Does it make sense? Does it sound right? Does it look right?

  15. Write, write, write….
