FREE Early Literacy Foundations Checklist

Early Literacy Foundations Checklist (Pre-Primary)

I use this practical checklist to reflect on the key foundations that support early literacy development in pre-primary classrooms. It includes simple, teacher-friendly prompts across:

- Oral language

- Phonological awareness

- Print awareness

- Alphabet & sound knowledge

- Fine-motor development

- Emergent writing

How I use it:

- As a quick classroom reflection tool

- As planning support for next steps

It helps me spot strengths, identify gaps, and stay focused on what matters—without extra workload. 😊
