Poor Language Skills

by Kim
(Australia)

As a kindergarten teacher I am finding that more and more children are coming to school without the prerequisite skills needed to enable them to learn as quickly as the curriculum demands.

This is especially true in the language area. Strong language skills are the foundation of good readers and writers. If children do not come to school with these skills then they struggle to keep up and this is unfair on everyone.

Mary Harris-Clarke is a Speech Pathologist and Special Education Teacher who has designed some fantastic games to help develop these fundamental skills. They are available from

I have found an excellent resource at the URL www.onlineeducationalproducts.com . There are two full-year curricula products at that site that are directed at Teaching Reading and Teaching Nutrition at the Pre-school/K/1st level. Prices are given on the site.
