INTRODUCTION
Did you know that preschoolers whose parents read to them, tell them stories and sing songs
with them tend to develop larger vocabularies, become better readers and preform better in
school? Did you know that reading proficiently by the end of the third grade is considered a
“make it or break it” benchmark? Or that 83 percent of children who are not reading on grade
level by the beginning of fourth grade are at risk of failing to graduate from high school on time?
In order to be sure that your child is reading on grade level, it’s important to support their
emergent literacy development. Emergent literacy skills are critical “getting ready to read” skills
that children need to develop before the can learn to read.

ACTIVITY

ABSTRACTION
ABC’s of Early Literacy: The importance of developing early literacy skills

Emergent literacy, or reading readiness, skills begin to develop very early in life. These critical
school-readiness skills go beyond knowing the ABC’s. Learn more about how to support your
children’s reading readiness and school success

These early literacy skills begin early on as young children learn to use verbal and nonverbal
communication patterns, including speech and sign language, to express themselves.  Parents
and other primary caregivers often understand these early attempts at communication best.
Along with language development, children are building their vocabulary. They learn new
vocabulary in many ways, including through reading books and talking with adults in their
environment. Studies have shown that the larger a child’s vocabulary, the quicker they will learn
to read, as they are familiar with more of the words they will encounter.
Experimental writing is another critical early literacy skill. Children’s first efforts at writing
typically resemble scribbling, but children usually know what they have “written” if you ask them!
Often, the first legible marks are letters in the child’s name. When children do not have access
to writing materials, they may enter Kindergarten not even knowing how to hold pencils or
crayons!

As children begin to understand that print on the page stands for something, they are
developing what is known as print awareness. When children begin to develop this skill, they
may hold a book correctly, even though it is upside down and backwards, for instance. As these
skills progress, they will know where a story begins and ends, and learn that text is read from
left to right.

ANALYSIS

Young children can begin to realize blended sounds require more complex combinations. At
such an early age, children do not relate the letters to that specific sound, but they will begin to
pick up on acceptable phonemes within reading and writing. 'Fr' is an acceptable phoneme, but
something like 'tsw' is not. There is no word in the English language that combines those letters
to make one sound. During emergent literacy, children begin to learn the acceptable phonemes
to increase their phoneme awareness. This knowledge is very important when they enter school
and start to learn to read.

ASSESSMENT
Read a short story and write the lesson of the story.
