The Literacy Acquisition for Pre-primary Students (LAPS) program aims to help Kimberley schools achieve the best possible literacy outcomes for children in their first year of compulsory schooling. Pre-primary teachers and support staff in participating schools are upskilled in their teaching of reading and writing. The approach involves age-appropriate explicit teaching of reading and writing in context, including the use of small-group teaching such as guided reading and writing. Working with students in a small group allows teachers to closely observe children’s learning and effectively cater for their needs, providing targeted, individualised support. LAPS acknowledges the culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds of students in the Kimberley. We promote valuing students’ first language or dialect while aiming to achieve successful learning in Standard Australian English.
