FROM ORACY TO LITERACY DEVELOPMENT OF YOUNG LEARNERS Differentiate oracy from literacy; LEARNING Evaluate activities for oracy and literacy OBJECTIVES development of young learners; and Plan activities for oracy and literacy development. Direction: Identify whether the following sentences are a MYTH or FACT. Explain your answer. 1. Language learning detracts from other, more important subjects. 2. Using baby talk slows down language development. 3. Language is the primary tool used in communication process. 4. Language development begins before birth. 5. Literacy precedes oracy. LITERACY VS. NUMERACY VS. ORACY. WHICH ONE OF THESE SEEMS UNFAMILIAR TO YOU? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ORACY AND LITERACY? Literacy and oracy are two different types of development but very much related concepts in language development of young learners. WHAT IS ORACY? Oracy is known to be as “the proficiency in oral expression and comprehension.” The term is coined by a British researcher and educator Andrew Wilkinson in parallel with the first two terms so he could emphasize the idea that oral skills have been forgotten in education. PRINCIPLES FOR GUIDING THE LITERACY DEVELOPMENT (GUNNING 2005) 1. Reading, writing, speaking, listening, and thinking develop simultaneously as learners grow into literacy. This is called an integration of macroskills development rather than a hierarchical, isolated skill focus. 2. Individuals learn to read and write by reading, writing, and responding to their reading and writing. This is learning by doing in pragmatic context of skills use. 3. Prior knowledge and background are major elements in one's ability to construct meaning. This explains the sources that children use as they interact with print and construct its meaning. 4. Comprehension is the process of constructing meaning by relating ideas from a text to one's prior knowledge and background. This shows that learners rely not only on what the text contains for meaning, but more importantly on their fund of experiences relevant to textual clues presented by the author.
