Copymasters For The Revised Second Edition Of An Observation Survey Of Early Literacy Achievement 2006 And Literacy Lessons 2005

"It is essential to use the instructions in 'Copymasters for the revised second edition of An observation survey of early literacy achievement (2006)' and 'Literacy lessons (2005)' to administer, score, and interpret these tasks. The copymaster sheets are not the assessment tasks."--P. [ii].

This third edition of Marie Clay's highly-valued An Observation Survey of Early Literacy Achievement presents her familiar assessment tasks designed for systematic observation of young children as they learn to read and write. Always respecting the author's intention, the editors have taken a fresh look at the way the book's message is communicated to teachers. Layout and expression have been refreshed to ensure clear understanding, and the administration and interpretation of each task in the survey have been carefully structured for consistent delivery. The observation procedures arose from a theory of how children learn to manage the complex task of reading and writing continuous text. That process is described in Marie Clay's books Becoming Literate: the Construction of Inner Control; Change Over Time in Children's Literacy Development, and By Different Paths to Common Outcomes. The intervention described in Literacy Lessons Designed for Individuals makes use of these observation procedures. This book will continue to be an invaluable resource for early literacy assessment for many years.

Two demonstrations of the six observation tasks in Marie M. Clay's An observation survey of early literacy achievement: running records, letter identification, concepts about print, word test, writing vocabulary, hearing and recording sounds in words.

`This book examines the literacy development and assessment of children before the age of five years. It is highly relevant to all those professionally involved in assessment. Cathy Nutbrown explores the need for appropriate assessment practice to support teachers and illustrates the mismatch between the way teachers and researchers assess literacy. The book is worth buying for the final chapter alone, which provides an analysis of the newly developed Sheffield Early Literacy Development Profile. The actual tasks are included in the appendices.
