Forbhreathnú

Dearadh an curaclam Béarla chun eispéireas teanga a chur ar fáil do leanaí a chomhtháthaíonn an teanga labhartha, an léitheoireacht agus an scríbhneoireacht. Nótálann an Curaclam Béarla go bhfuil an teanga fíorthábhachtach sa phróiseas foghlama. Foghlaimíonn leanaí faoi theanga agus foghlaimíonn siad trí theanga.

Tá an teanga labhartha an-tábhachtach tríd an gcuraclam ar fad, toisc go bhfuil sí lárnach do chumas ginearálta teanga an linbh a fhorbairt. Spreagtar agus cothaítear caint agus plé i ngach réimse den churaclam. Trí ghníomhaíocht chainte na leanaí

  • forbraítear a gcumas cumarsáid a dhéanamh agus teanga a úsáid go sóisialta
  • forbraítear scileanna cognaíocha
  • forbraítear scileanna léitheoireachta agus scríbhneoireachta
  • saibhraítear a n-éispéireas teanga agus a gcumhachtaí samhlaíocha.
Tá an cur chuige curtha i láthair i ndáil leis an léitheoireacht i gCuraclam an Bhéarla bunaithe ar eispéireas comhtháite teanga. Ó na blianta is luaithe ba cheart go mbeadh taithí ag leanaí ar thimpeallacht atá saibhir le hábhar i gcló agus ba cheart go mbeadh fáil éasca acu ar leabhair. De réir mar a fhorbraíonn cumas léitheoireachta,

  • léann leanaí don phléisiúr agus chun eolas a fháil
  • foghlaimíonn siad conas leabhair a aimisiú agus a úsáid do réimse leathan críocha
  • forbraíonn siad scileanna tuisceana den ord níos airde
  • foghlaimíonn siad conas léamh do chríocha feidhmiúla agus sóisialta.
Forbraítear an cumas scríobh go soiléir agus go tromchiallach trí phróiseas na scríbhneoireachta. Bíonn an deis ag leanaí

  • bheith ag scríobh chun críocha éagsúla, do lucht léite éagsúla agus i réimse leathan seanraí
  • an cumas a fhorbairt a gcuid scríbhneoireachta féin a cheartú, trí éispéireas leanúnach i ndréachtadh, eagarthóireacht agus athdhréachtadh
  • máistreacht a fháil ar chonbhinsiúin na gramadaí, an litrithe agus na poncaíochta agus de réir a chéile beidh siad ina scríbhneoirí neamhspleácha.
Trí úsáid a bhaint as réimse leathan de ghléasanna measúnaithe, is féidir leis an múinteoir dul chun cinn an linbh i bhforbairt na teanga a mheas ag gach céim, d’fhonn aon deacrachtaí a aithint a luaithe agus is féidir agus an tacaíocht chuí a sholáthar chomh maith.

Overview

The English curriculum is designed to offer children a language experience which integrates oral language, reading and writing. The English Curriculum notes that language is crucial in the learning process. Children learn about language, and they also learn through language.

Oral language is of particular importance throughout the curriculum, as it is central to the development of the child's general language ability. Talk and discussion are encouraged in every curriculum area. Through oral language activity children

  • develop their ability to communicate and use language socially
  • develop cognitive skills
  • develop reading and writing skills
  • enrich their language experience and imaginative powers.
The approach to reading presented in the English Curriculum is based on this integrated language experience. From the earliest years children should experience a print-rich environment in which they have ready access to books. As their reading abilities develop, children

  • read for pleasure and information
  • learn to locate and use books for a variety of purposes
  • develop the higher order comprehension skills
  • learn to read for both functional and social purposes.
The ability to write clearly and expressively is developed through the process of writing. Children

  • have opportunities to write for a variety of purposes, for different audiences and in a range of genres
  • develop the ability to self-correct their own writing, through a consistent experience of drafting, editing and redrafting
  • develop a command of the conventions of grammar, spelling and punctuation, and progressively become independent writers.
By using a range of assessment tools, the teacher can monitor the children's progress in language development at every stage in order to identify difficulties as early as possible, and provide appropriate support.
