This document discusses early literacy development from birth through elementary school. It covers stages of literacy development, how reading and writing develop, and developmentally appropriate practices to support literacy. Some key points include: literacy is first modeled at home, stages include awareness/exploration, experimental reading/writing, and independent reading/writing. Creating literate environments, shared reading, reading aloud, and play-based activities promote literacy development. Teachers should consider students' backgrounds and use culturally appropriate practices.

ReseaRcheRs widely Recommend
storybook reading for promoting the
early language and literacy of young
children. By listening to stories, chil-
dren learn about written syntax and
vocabulary and develop phonologi-
cal awareness and concepts of print,
all of which are closely linked to
learning to read and write (National
Early Literacy Panel 2008). Teachers
usually know a read-aloud experi-
ence has been effective because
they see the children maintain their
interest in the story, relate different
aspects of the story to their own
experiences, describe the illustra-
tions, and ask questions about the
characters and plot.
However, listening to a story read
aloud can be a very different experi-
ence for children who speak a lan-
guage other than English. What
happens when the children are read
to in a language they are just begin-
ning to learn? What happens when
an English-speaking teacher reads
a story to a group of children who
are learning English as a second
language?
As illustrated in the vignette at the
beginning of this article, teachers
often describe young dual language
learners in their class as distracted
and unengaged during read-aloud
sessions in English. In this article,
we describe teaching strategies that
English-speaking teachers can use
when reading aloud to young dual
language learners. These strategies
are part of the Nuestros Niños Early
Language and Literacy Program, a
professional development interven-
tion designed to improve the quality
of teaching practices in prekin-
dergarten classrooms to support
Spanish-speaking dual language
learners (Castro et al. 2006). The
intervention was developed and
evaluated in a study funded by
the US Department of Education.

voice in reading, and to stay at each page for a short
time.
●
Irma grew up in an illiterate home and did not
know what to do with books when she checked
them out from the library.

8. Designing Literacy-Related Play Centers
Literacy play centers in preschool and kindergarten:
provide an environment where children may play with print on their own terms;
provide natural context for beginners to experiment with literacy; and
promote literacy by giving children opportunities to observe one another using
literacy for real reasons.
1986 Roskos study of closely observing eight children during free-play situations
makes three recommendations:
1. create and frequently use play centers that facilitate sustained pretend play and prompt
experimentation with reading and writing; consider developing play centers that stimulate
young children to explore the routines, functions, and features of literacy
2. ask children to share pretend-play stories, record them on chart paper, and use for
extended language-experience activities
3. observe more closely the literacy at work in pretend play... observations may guide our
9. Several factors to consider when
designing literacy play centers:
1. Setting: places and contexts that are
familiar; setting should be general enough
for children to create their own stories
and themes
2. Locations of centers in the classroom:
locate in designated area of classroom;
label accordingly at children's eye level
3. Props in a play center: include real props
found in the environment and use for
dramatic effect or for literacy-related
activity; appropriateness of props depend
on their authenticity, use and safety
Teachers can assume any of the following
important roles in children's play:
1. Onlooker role: physically present nearby but
does not enter the play setting; teacher
may encourage children's play or give
suggestions
2. Stage manager role: teacher does not enter
the play but might make suggestions to
extend the play or respond to requests for
prompts
3. Co-player role: teacher becomes directly
involved in the play as a participant;
teacher will model and extend language
for the children; teacher is a fellow peer
4. Leader role: teacher is very directive and
models specific behaviors of play to be
adapted by the children; teacher will
introduce a new play theme, explain roles
and possible scripts, and introduce props
and print into setting; teacher switches
between participant and director
10. Exploring Print Through Language Experiences
Children have a desire to express themselves in symbolic terms through drawing, scribbling,
copying, and, ultimately, producing their own written language. Exploring written language
with paper and pencil helps children form the expectation that print is meaningful.
Talking, Creating, Singing, and Dancing
Language experience approach embraces the natural language of children and uses their
background experiences as the basis for learning to read.
Language experience activities permit young children to share and discuss experiences, listen to
and tell stories, dictate words, sentences, and stories, and write independently.
Teachers can revolve language experiences around speaking, listening, visual expression,
singing, movement, and rhythmic activities.
Use conversation to encourage individual or group language-experience stories or independent
writing.
use art as a vehicle for personal expression
tell stories through pictures
talk about everyday sights and occurrences
create dances that tell a story
11. Role Playing and Drama
Role playing and dramatic activities stimulate the imagination and also provide many
opportunities to use language inventively and spontaneously.
Role playing gives children the chance to approach ordinary or unusual events and situations
from different perspectives and points of view.
Dramatic play activities involve unstructured, spontaneous expression.
The objective of any kind of dramatic activity is self-expression.
Teacher's involvement is one of continuous encouragement and facilitation.
use children's literature for drama
engage children in problem solving situations as a start for spontaneous dramatic activity
12. Reading to Children
Create a love for books by reading aloud!
Reading to children helps them appreciate literature, develop and enrich their own
language, and build implicit concepts about reading and writing.
Reading to children provides models for writing as they develop a sense of plot,
characterization, mood and theme.
Reading to children is an important way of sharing books and provides valuable
stimulation for relating speech to print.
13. Sharing Books
Parents can share reading with their children
through bedtime stories.
The idea of shared reading is to use a "big
book" or other enlarged text to share a
story with a group of children or the whole
class.
The story becomes the basis for discussion and
language-related activities.
Shared reading creates opportunities for
children to learn what a book is, what an
"expert" reader does with a book as it is
read, and what makes a story a story.
Repeating the Reading of Favorite
Stories
The teacher should be willing to read and
reread favorite books and to invite
children to participate as much as
possible.
Language patterns of the books should be
predictable, melodic, and rhythmic.
When children memorize stories, pretending to
read actually establishes good models.
Providing Assistance as Needed
Parents should follow their child's lead and
answer any questions when their children
ask for assistance.
Children choose their own activities and
materials.
14. Beginning readers benefit from developmentally appropriate practices that
are home-centered, play-centered, and language-centered.
Developmentally appropriate practices must be age appropriate,
individually appropriate, and socially and culturally appropriate.
“To make a difference in children's literacy development, be aware of the
learning environment of the home, respect the diverse cultural milieus
from which children learn to use language, and develop strategies to build
on family strengths.”
As each child contributes different kinds of knowledge, values, attitudes
and strategies for literacy learning to school, appropriate school
experiences are key in realizing their full potential as literacy learners.
