Literacy Checklist In preschool, we have so little time each day with the children. In special education classrooms, we tend to have less time for literacy as we work on IEP goals which include self-help skills, social skills, and basic needs. Use this list of good teaching practices for preschool special education classrooms as a self check. Did you do each of these things this week? Read a book every day [ examples Model reading and writing explicitly [ examples Let kids write their own names on their art work [ examples Plan units around literature [ examples Use augmentative communication to allow for participation in interactive reading [ examples Use electronic versions of books to allow access to repeated readings of stories and to increase motivation and attention for stories [ examples Incorporate activities that use printed names of students into daily routine [ examples Incorporate reading and writing into dramatic play areas [ examples Model reading and writing functions by explicitly teach how to play in the dramatic play areas [ examples Use communication boards for all children in the dramatic play area [ examples Read a book every day – we often get so busy, we forget that reading books constantly is very valuable for literacy development.

19. Adapting Literacy Activities For Young Children support children with disabilities need to participate in literacy activities. tactile materials allow children to actively participate in storybook reading. http://www.wiu.edu/users/mimacp/wiu/articles/adaptlit.html

Adapting Literacy Activities for Young Children by Linda Robinson Young children learn literacy skills in a variety of ways as they play, handle books, observe adults using print materials, and interact with others during storybook reading. One of the keys to successful acquisition of literacy is children's active participation in literacy activities. Children need to be actively involved in handling books and interacting with family members and teachers during reading time. Although the computer offers one alternative for assisting children and families with interactive literacy experiences, there are also many adaptations can be made to books and other print materials to insure that children are active participants in storybook reading. Children with disabilities as well as very young children who do not have the fine motor skills to turn pages can benefit from page turners, communication boards and aprons, and a book holder. Visual adaptations can also be made to make materials more interactive and appealing to young children. Page Turners Another adaptation can be made with velcro for page turning. Attach a small piece of velcro about mid-way down the page on the far right side. Attach a velcro band around the child's hand so that he/she can touch the page and pull the page over the next one. Small ponytail holders can be glued to the movable part of a book that has pop-up features. Children can then pull the holder to enjoy the pop-up part of the book.
