The Emergent Literacy Observation Analysis Newsletter incorporates two articles that validates the urgency to expose print at the onset of early life--preschool age children, toddlers, and infants. With consistent exposure to print in everyday life, storybook reading, and scribble writing--inventive children will have the capabilities of reading readiness success as they enter formal education.
My Emergent Literacy Observation Newsletter showcases the reactions of 4-year old Amya as she is read aloud Love You Forever by Robert Munsch.
This project revealed how essential early reading at home and interactions through dialogue stimulates oral and written language.
The two articles used as resources:
