Children literacy development
(Parents' roles and home environment)
Concepts
The home is crucial
Parents supporting learning in the home give greatest influence than supporting activities in school.
Early intervention is vital
The earlier parents become involved in their children’s literacy practices, the more profound the results and the longer-lasting the effects.
Families & parents are critical to children's attainment
Parental involvement in their child's literacy practices is a more powerful force for academic success than other family background variables; social class, family size, level of parental education
Parental education, skills and attitude
Parents with low literacy skills
Less likely to help their children with writing and reading, feel less confident in doing so
Less likely to have children who read for pleasure
More likely to have children with lower cognitive and language development levels
Parental attitudes and aspirations
-Parents who promote the view that reading is a valuable and worthwhile activity have children who are motivated to read for pleasure
Parental educational level
Impact on young children's cognitive
and language development
Parents’ level of education correlates with the cognitive development of babies between
12 months and 27 months of age
Effective parental involvement
What parents and carers do with their children is more important than who parents are
Reading with the child
Teaching songs and nursery rhymes
Painting and drawing
Playing with letters and numbers
Teaching alphabet and numbers
Taking children on visits: library visit
Create regular opportunity to play at home
Impact of reading to young children
Children who are read to at an early age tend to display greater interest in reading at a later age
Story reading at home enhances children's language comprehension and expressive language skills
Parental involvement in their child’s reading has been found to be the most
important determinant of language and emergent literacy
Oral language developed from parent/child reading predicts later writing development
Parents who introduce their babies to books give them a head start in school and an advantage over their peers throughout primary school
Early years skills as strong predictors achievement
Understanding writing functions
Knowing nursery rhymes
Understanding narrative and story
Demonstrating some phonological awareness
Demonstrating letter identification before age five
Being capable of explanatory talk
