Book Sociodramatic Play and the Potentials of Early Language Development of Preschool Children

Download or read book Sociodramatic Play and the Potentials of Early Language Development of Preschool Children written by Tarsha Benaye Bluiett and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to explore the interactions of preschool children with literacy-related materials, peers, and adults as they engaged in sociodramatic play. A second purpose of the study was to identify subsequent effects, if any, of that sociodramatic play on oral language acquisition and literacy behaviors. Play allows children opportunities to try out different ways in which they can combine the elements of language without having to worry about the consequences of making errors. Thus, the sociodramatic play context is conducive to language acquisition. Researchers have indicated that oral language development is influenced by social interaction and the kinds of materials children use. The problem is whether or not teachers use social interaction and materials enough to sufficiently facilitate development and properly select literacy-related materials to promote the development of language acquisition. Therefore, three questions guided the study: (1) How does sociodramatic play with literacy-related materials create opportunities for language acquisition at the preschool level? (2) How does social interaction through sociodramatic play experience among preschool children foster language acquisition as they are interacting with their peers? (3) How do adults influence the language expression of preschool children during sociodramatic play? The qualitative research design for this study utilized a case study approach to explore sociodramatic play in a preschool setting. Observations included interactions of children and the multiple functions of language they used while interacting with literacy-related materials, peers, and adults. Halliday's (1975) seven functions of language were used as coding categories. The findings of this study revealed that the children's interactions in sociodramatic play, with literacy-related materials, peers, and adults provided an opportunity for children to use language for multiple functions within the context of their sociodramatic play while writing and speaking. Providing children with the needed support and exposure to materials encouraged literacy and language growth. In this play setting, adults assumed roles as scaffold, facilitator and mediator while children were actively involved with a variety of strategies such as modeling, designating, and coaching each other as they engaged in language activities.

Book The Benefits of Sociodramatic Play  a Resource Book for Early Childhood Educators and Parents

Download or read book The Benefits of Sociodramatic Play a Resource Book for Early Childhood Educators and Parents written by Megan E.. Matteoni and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The act of play is essential to children's development. Through play, empathy, communication, symbolic thinking as well as collaboration and problem-solving skills are learned and practiced. The current project addresses sociodramatic play as a creative projection of children's cognitive development and aid in developing their prosocial interactions. The active cooperative interactions between participants during sociodramatic play, requires the participants to take on complementary roles that correspond with the same focus or direction of the play scenario. Sociodramatic play is the fusion of fantasy and social play, where imaginations collaborate to create play scenarios that are physically and mentally portrayed. It requires the separation of thoughts from actions, which is referred to as symbolic representation. The skills associated with symbolic representation are not only precursors to developing literacy skills, but also develop the individual's emotional security and ability to self-regulate. Through extensive research, a resource book was created to support early childhood educators and parents of young children in comprehending the cognitive and emotional advantages of sociodramatic play as well as ways to promote this form of play within the classroom and at home. The resource book was presented to evaluators, ranging from educators to parents of preschool children. The evaluators read and completed a one-page questionnaire based on the book's usefulness to their field. Overall, the resource book was viewed as a valuable piece of research to the field. Nine of 11 (82%) of evaluators strongly agreed with the statement that the book was well written and its objectives were met, while 18% of evaluators agreed, and no one disagreed or strongly disagreed. The evaluators enjoyed reading the personal experiences shared and appreciated how personal stories were tied to theory exploration and discussions of current research throughout the book. Eight of 9 (72%) of evaluators, working within the education field, stated they would recommend the resource book to their colleagues, and 10 of 11 (90%) of all evaluators stated they would recommend the book to parents.

Book A Preschool Teacher s Guide to Sociodramatic Play

Download or read book A Preschool Teacher s Guide to Sociodramatic Play written by Denise Marie Wolff and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early childhood education coursework of pre-service teachers includes emphasis on the general concept that children learn through play, but other coursework demands may limit specific instruction about how children develop skills through play activities. As many preschool teachers are required to complete assessments of children's development, it is important that teachers are able to identify play situations where children's skills can be assessed and create a setting in which learning through play can be fostered. Thus, the purpose of this project was to create an evidence-based resource handbook to assist beginning teachers in fostering children's sociodramatic play, and using that play for documenting children's growth and development. The content of the project handbook was based on research in learning through play in preschool-aged children. A needs assessment survey was distributed to pre-service teachers enrolled in practicum coursework at a community college in the Sacramento area. The needs assessment included a survey of pre-service teachers'current knowledge of play and additional topics about play they would be interested in learning more about. Based upon the responses of the needs assessment survey and review of evidence-based scholarly literature, the project handbook was developed by the author and distributed to beginning and experienced teachers for review. The handbook included definitions and examples of types of play. Evidence of how play fosters the development of social skills and academic achievement was explained. Evidence-based classroom practices that foster sociodramatic play and assessment through observing play were presented. Evaluations were included at the back of each handbook in order to assess the applicability and usefulness of the handbook. The results of the handbook evaluations were discussed and further methods of disseminating the information contained in the handbook were considered.

Book Effects of Board Game Training Using a Least to Most Prompting Procedure to Increase Independent Performance of Preschool Children with Disabilities and Their Typically Developing Peers

Download or read book Effects of Board Game Training Using a Least to Most Prompting Procedure to Increase Independent Performance of Preschool Children with Disabilities and Their Typically Developing Peers written by Janet M. Davis and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of a least to most prompting procedure on the independent performance of board game steps, on-task behaviors, and social interactions of children with special needs and their typically developing peers. Children were taught the steps of age appropriate board games using least to most prompting. The study was designed to demonstrate that children with special needs and their peer partners can increase their independent board game play when trained to play a game. A multiple baseline across subjects was used. Child behaviors included performance of board game steps, on-task behavior and social initiations and responses. Following each session, the children were observed using a partial interval 10s recording scheme to score on-task and off-task behaviors, teacher interactions, teacher prompts, teacher negatives, and the social interactions between the target child and his partner. In addition, the game steps were recorded throughout the ten-minute videotaped session. Interobserver agreement and procedural integrity measures were conducted. This study was conducted during free play. One 10-minute session per day was conducted for each child and his peer partner four days per week. The participants in the study were chosen based on observations prior to the study as well as by the early intervention teachers. The teachers were asked to identify the children who had deficits or delays in their social development and who would benefit from interacting with a peer, and who had good language skills. In addition, the teachers were asked to identify typical peers who were able to follow directions, play simple board games, and who were socially appropriate for their age. Results showed that the children's levels of independence and on-task behaviors did increase during game training and continued high levels of independence and on-task behavior occurred during post-game training. Total social interactions decreased during game training and returned to baseline levels or slightly increased during post-game training. The results also show that teacher prompts increased during game training and decreased as the children became more independent in playing the game and into the post-game training stage of the study. Future directions for research may include the use of multiple peers, large group game play, and adaptations of games for children with disabilities and their typically developing peers.
