About Gillian
I am a retired foundation phase educator. I taught grade one and grade 2 for most of my 27 years as an educator. I did a three-year foundation phase teacher training course at a college in the Northern province. I enjoyed teaching grade one and two learners because it combined an abstract concept with a practical application. I believe applying an abstract concept concretely enhances the learning experience. I retired as a grade head for grade twos. I drew up the termly and weekly lesson plans, as well as all activities for each subject. I designed and produced all the assessments for each term. I took early retirement because my daughter had an opportunity to complete her high school and university education in the USA. As she was a minor at the time, I had to accompany her. I am based permanently in South Africa now. I know that our education system has evolved and changed. However, the core of a sound reading and writing foundation will always remain at the heart of the foundation phase. A strong foundation prepares the learner for the next phase, viz, reading to learn.

Lessons based on current grade level. Lessons based on areas where the learner is being challenged. Back to basics to establish where the backlog might be. Work activities around those specific areas of concern to improve understanding and enhancing those areas to bring the learner up to standard of current classwork. Once the areas of concern are identified by both teacher and learner. Different types of exercises can then be done to further develop, enhance and improve learner's ability to apply knowledge to that particular area. Practical exercises will be done weekly in different formats to continue to expose the learner to differ ways to apply this knowledge. Exposure to different digital as well as written formats will be applied as well.
