Assess
Begin by identifying specific areas of difficulty. Utilize the various assessments provided in each section to establish a baseline and gain insight into the learner’s needs.
Plan
Design activities that are developmentally appropriate and tailored to the learner’s current level. Ensure that the interventions are targeted and purposeful.
Do
Implement short, daily, and repetitive tasks. Consistency and routine are key to reinforcing skills and building confidence.
Review
Evaluate the impact of the activities and games. Ask:
Have the interventions led to measurable progress?
Has the learner shown improvement in their literacy skills?
If progress is limited, reflect on possible reasons and consider adjusting your approach to better meet the learner’s needs.
