Literacy - Effective Reading

This podcast discusses assessment of student reading. For our NSW DoE teachers, we chat about what is available and how these assessments support us in identifying the reading behaviours and strategies of our students. We can use that information to make decisions about the next focus areas to target our teaching to meet student need. 
For more information on these assessments and how to access them you can visit the assessment section on the Literacy and Numeracy website: https://education.nsw.gov.au/teaching-and-learning/curriculum/literacy-and-numeracy/assessment-resources
or the Learning Resource Hub: https://resources.education.nsw.gov.au/?source=readingandnumeracy&sort=relevance

Eye of The Beholder

1 2 3

As wide as the divide 
Driven between us
Destroyed from inside 
By evil genius 
Gouge out my eyes
Wish I had never seen this 
Eye of the beholder
From hell beneath us

The line that divides between good and evil
runs through the hearts of all the people
God created humans all the equal
the eyes of the beholder
civilization in freefall

Listen to me know
Your time is done
Soon you'll be going down
Like the setting sun
No time left to borrow
No where to run
Now you pay the piper 
You've had your fun

The line that divides between good and evil
runs through the hearts of all the people
God created humans all the equal
the eyes of the beholder
civilization in freefall

When you chop wood
the chips will fly
People burn the world
As their leaders lie 
Last too know
Is the first to die 
Throw your fists in the air 
spit in beholder's eye 

Burning it all the way
burn it to my dismay
now its time to pay
eye of the beholder

Burning it all the way
burn it to my dismay
now its time to pay
eye of the beholder

For the good of us all!  x4

As wide as the divide 
Driven between us
Destroyed from inside 
By evil genius 
Gouge out my eyes
Wish I had never seen this 
Eye of the beholder
From hell beneath us

The line that divides between good and evil
runs through the hearts of all the people
God created humans all the equal
the eyes beholder
civilization in freefall

Dr Danielle Colenbrander chats with us about the role of vocabulary in reading instruction. 
Dr Danielle Colenbrander is a researcher and member of the Macquarie University Centre for Reading. Danielle trained as a speech language pathologist at Macquarie University before completing her PhD exploring the role of oral vocabulary in reading comprehension difficulties. She has worked with diverse populations of children in a variety of settings in Australia and the UK. She is interested in relationships between vocabulary knowledge, reading aloud and reading comprehension.

Literacy and Numeracy forms the basis of all of our learning as they are required for learning other skills and participating in everyday life. To improve student outcomes in literacy and numeracy we look at evidence-based practices and focus on the quality teaching of literacy and numeracy in all NSW schools.
