Developing Early Literacy Skills Outdoors
Activity ideas and best practice for teaching and learning outside
Children develop communication, language and literacy skills through interaction, conversation and play with others. The outdoor environment facilitates active and social play, where children practise speaking and listening to each other and act out roles that involve reading and writing. They do this in an unrestricted space that allows for vocal discussion and argument, which supports their language development and helps them to extend their knowledge and understanding of the world.
Developing Early Literacy Skills Outdoors is full of valuable ideas that are low cost and easy to set up, aiming to reassure practitioners and give them the confidence to plan more learning experiences outdoors. This is further supported with planning guidance, resource ideas, as well as links to the Australian and New Zealand Early Childhood Curricula and advice on observation and assessment.
