Overview
This course provides all the knowledge required to support the assessment and implementation of the Better Start Literacy Approach in New Entrant/Year 1 classrooms.
Teacher Aides must be partnered with a teacher (or teachers) who is currently or has previously completed the BSLA Teacher microcredential, and this must be declared at the time of enrolment.
Cost: $320 per person (includes microcredential fee, access to all BSLA online resources, lesson plans game activities and assessments). Please note this fee does not cover the cost of a resource kete.
Undertaking this microcredential is not part of the Ministry of Education professional learning package, but would provide excellent support to the class teachers implementing the BSLA, and is an outstanding professional learning opportunity for teacher aides.
