    1. The document discusses two main perspectives on early reading and writing: emergent literacy and evidenced-based reading research (EBRR). 2. Emergent literacy focuses on how children construct their own understanding of reading and writing through everyday experiences like storybook reading. EBRR identifies core skills like phonological awareness that are important for reading proficiency. 3. The document argues that a balanced approach combining emergent literacy and EBRR is most effective, providing direct instruction on skills while allowing opportunities for meaningful literacy activities. This balanced approach and defining early literacy standards can help guide effective early literacy instruction.

    Main Perspectives on Early


    Reading and Writing
    Emergent
    literacy
    Evidencedbased Reading
    Research
    (EBBR)

    Emergent Literacy
    2. Children construct
    their own concepts
    about the functions and
    structure of print and
    then try these in play
    and in everyday
    situations.
    Pretending to read a
    book to a doll
    Recognizing a brand of
    milk at the grocery

    Emergent Literacy
    2. Children test their beliefs
    about how written language
    works and, based on how
    others respond and the result
    they get, modify these beliefs
    and construct more
    sophisticated systems of
    reading and writing
    e.g. Writing attempts
    scribbles> letter-like form>
    random streams of letters>
    invented spelling

    Emergent Literacy
    4. With lots of
    opportunities to engage
    in meaningful literacy
    activities, large
    amounts of interaction
    with adults and peers
    and some incidental
    instruction, children
    become conventional
    readers and writers

    Emergent Literacy:
    Research Base
    Concepts of print
    Environmental print

    In storybook reading,

    - gradual shift from


    reading pictures to aspects
    of print
    - gradual shift intonation

    Emergent Literacy:

    Home environment

    - access to print and


    books
    - adult demonstrations
    of literacy behavior
    - supportive adults
    - storybook reading

    Emergent Literacy
    1. Children observe and
    interact with adults
    and other children as
    they use literacyfocused routines

    Literacy Strategy
    Child dictates story about a
    personal experience; teacher
    writes it down.
    Teacher reads the story back
    to the child and then gives
    him/her the opportunity to
    read it.

    need

    be
    interwoven in order
    to
    provide
    young
    children
    with
    balanced,
    effective
    early
    literacy
    instruction

    Principles of Balanced
    Early Literacy Instruction
    1.

    Early language and literacy education


    should focus on core content the
    knowledge, skills and dispositions that
    are predictive of later success in learning
    to read and write.
    - oral language
    - background knowledge
    - phonological awareness
    - alphabet knowledge
    - concepts about print

    Principles of Balanced
    Early Literacy Instruction
    2.

    Oral language lays


    the foundation for early
    literacy development.
    3. Storybook reading is the
    cornerstone of early
    literacy instruction.
    4. A carefully planned
    classroom environment
    enables
    literacy
    development
    to
    flourish.

    Principles of Balanced
    Early Literacy Instruction
    Children need opportunities to
    engage in emergent forms
    of reading and writing.
    6. Developmentally appropriate
    forms of direct instruction
    should be used to teach
    core literacy concepts and
    skills.
    7. Teachers need to help
    parents
    support
    their
    childrens language, reading
    and writing development.

    Principles of Balanced
    Early Literacy Instruction
    8.

    Oral language and


    early
    literacy
    instruction
    and
    assessment should be
    guided by standards
    that
    define
    the
    knowledge and skills
    young children need to
    become successful.

    Standards for Early Literacy

    (Proposes at the 2004 Educators Congress)

    Phonological skills
    Book and print knowledge
    Phonics

    What Beginning Reading


    Teachers Should Know
    Young childrens sense of story
    Young childrens sensitivity to the sounds of
    language
    Developmental conceptions of written language
    (print awareness)
    Fine motor development
    MEANS FOR INSPIRING MOTIVATION TO READ

    The future of the nation is


    on the shoulders of
    teachers and how they
    teach kids; the future of the
    world is in the classroom
    where the teachers are.
    And if we have any chance
    to guarantee a positive
    bridge to the 21st century, it
    is how we educate the
    children in the classroom
    today.
