Making language and literacy acquisition FUN

Chosen by the Foundation Stage Forum as product of the month 

SALLEY is a complete programme of activities that gives nursery and reception class children all the skills they need for their future learning.

• Listening
• Attention
• Memory
• Sequencing
• Discrimination

These crucial concepts help prepare children to improve, through the 100 days of activities in the SALLEY programme, their  phonological  awareness and their readiness to acquire literacy.

Rigorously  tested , the research shows the fun 20 minutes a day  programme, which encourages active learning, whole body movement and visual and auditory inputs, and which can be used by any early years practitioner, significantly improves  children’s reading ability and their general learning skills.

 It leads into or support  the DCFS’s Letters  and Sounds guidance and meets many of the objectives of  the National Early Years Foundation Framework  without making excessive demands on children or staff.

It can also be used as a diagnostic, intervention a and prevention tool for  children in danger of failing to develop  appropriate phonological awareness and literacy skills.

Five local authorise have adopted SALLEY for all or most of their early years settings!
