Ann Approach To Literacy Development Based On The Idea That Student Can Write By Dictating To The Teacher What They Already Know And Feel. The Experiences Of The Students Are An Integral Part Of Initial Reading And Writing As These Experiences Become The Basis For The Content Of The Materials Used In Instruction. Teacher Provides A Stimulus And The Students Generate An Oral Composition Or Story Which Is Then Written Down. The Teacher Then Guides The Students Directly Through A Reading Lesson Using These Student-dictated Materials. Students Get Involved In The Experience.
