Literacy Children -- Books and reading |
| Descripción: | This study examines the influence of home, classroom and book-reading conditions on emergent and early readers' developing literacy abilities. The study, done with 60 grade 1 children from the inner-city and more affluent areas of Montreal uses complex multivariate designs to assess how these three conditions influence children's developing literacy abilities. Results indicate that variations in the home environment and children's interactions with print have a significant effect on book and code knowledge and print awareness before school instruction. The combined effect of the classroom and home environments have a significant influence on print awareness and reading fluency. After 4 months of instruction children improve significantly in book and code knowledge, print awareness, accuracy and fluency. Across classrooms, children differ in print awareness, fluency and word-reading accuracy. Assisted and unassisted reading conditions with an unfamiliar, patterned book indicate that use of strategies changes as a function of time and assistance given. |
