Overwhelmed by Choice

Posted on 23rd Jan 2012

It is that time of the year when many teachers are considering which resources they can utilise to facilitate a successful upcoming school year. We received the following enquiry and have shared the response as we believe many of you reading this may also find it useful.

 

Greetings PLD.I am very keen to be use your resources but unsure of where to start. Last year I looked at you site and resources and was really impressed but became overwhelmed by the choices and best fit for our centre. It is a new year with finally an experienced staff. I am keen to share this journey with parents so would like to facilitate learning workshops for parents to support what we are doing and I like your videos etc.  for explicit help and support.

 

Kind regards

Dear VW,

Many thanks for your enquiry and positive feedback. I agree our range has grown and it is often difficult to know where to start. I would suggest:

• Option 1: Decide on which area you would like to target; literacy/spelling/decoding (green covers) or oral language/speaking/listening/comprehension (blue covers) or movement and motor skills (red covers)
•  Option 2: Decide upon the age range you wish to target

 

If can decide either upon the area or the age range your search will be refined. The web site has a search function which will facilitate both types of searches. On the left hand side of the home page www.pld-literacy.org you will find the search or browse by function.

 

You will also find our 2012 Literary Resources Catalogue very useful as it is laid out in a very logical way with the relevant National Curriculum Guideline statements linked to respective products. If you have further questions I am very happy to assist. I wish you all the best with your selection and for the coming school year.
