Minilit

Learning Support will be a little different for some of the younger children this year as they take part in a Minilit program.  Minilit stands for Meeting Initial Needs in Literacy.   It was developed at Macquarie University and has its roots in scientific research and development.
Minilit incorporates the key elements of early reading programs: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary development and text comprehension.
Hopefully this intensive small group instruction will strengthen the children’s early reading skills and help them on their path to becoming confident readers.
