The article I chose for the review is titled, “Language and Literacy Promotion in Early Childhood Settings: A Survey of Center- Based Practices”. This article begins with the importance of literacy development within the early childhood years and how it serves as a essential foundation. It was then based off of a study that focused on two factors: (1) to assess the extent to which early childhood educators engage children in literacy-building activities, and (2) to identify educator or programmatic characteristics associated with the promotion of early literacy activities in child care centers. The study was done through a survey, one hundred and eighty…

The title of the article read is “Getting Children from Low-Income Families to Read: What Works”. It was written by Janet Siew Poh Law and published in the Journal of Reading and Literacy in 2012. The article focuses on getting children from low-income families to read. Law also talks about why it is important for children to read and how people of all walks of life can help children. The author has the thesis statement of “Therefore, there is a compelling need to get children to read, especially those from families with low incomes” (Law, 2012, p. 8). The author has several key ideas which include how reading and academics are related, at-risk children are usually from low-income families, at-risk children need the most help, and some ways…
Children and young people who struggle to communicate will often also struggle to engage in and enjoy education. Almost all aspects of school life are language based. In his report on the teaching of early reading, Sir Jim Rose made a clear connection between strong speaking and listening skills and children’s ability to learn to read. Educational achievement statistics show a significant gap between the achievement of children and young people with SLCN and their peers.…

That compares their literacy knowledge to that of children who do not live in poverty. Understanding social class diversity enhances the learning of all students. And Class differences in child-rearing practices may sound alarming or oversimplified. Lower-class children are more likely to have unstable family situations. Their parents typically have low-wage jobs and are more frequently laid off, causing family stress and more arbitrary discipline. This paper explains how language and attitudes of low income families act as barriers to success in education. And what types of programs or interventions are most useful in overcoming those barriers.…
Over the last fifty years several theories have tried to explain the process by which children learn to understand language. Children first learn to listen and speak, then use these and other skills to learn to read and write. “Children in this age range enjoy stories and can answer simple questions about them. He or she hears and understands nearly everything that is said (within reason) at home or at pre-school or day care.” (http://superduperinc.com/handouts/pdf/145_fine%20motor%20milestones.pdf) (03/12/13)…
