Bio
Kia ora. I love teaching and have been working in education for over 30 years! I am always learning myself. I have taught in primary and secondary school classrooms, worked in Special Education and in The Arts and am currently the Assistant Principal at a primary school in sunny Gisborne and a part time facilitator for Ready4Learning. I lead a Year 0 - 2 team, work in literacy support, teach the ukulele, play the guitar and sing! I am passionate about ensuring our tamariki have a smooth transition from ECE to primary school and have seen first hand the positive impact that Play Based Learning and structured Literacy can have on tamariki.
Come along to this workshop to get practical ideas to help move tamariki from sounding out, to blending, to ‘popping’ words out automatically!
Sue is one of our R4L facilitators and works with Literacy Intervention groups at her school in Gisborne using a Structured Literacy approach. She’s keen to share some tips and tricks she’s learnt with you.
