Download or read book The Effects of Transitional Kindergarten on the Reading Fluency Achievement of First Graders written by Crystal Inez Villanueva and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As academic expectations of students become more rigorous, school readiness has become crucial in the achievement of young students entering formal education. The Kindergarten Readiness Act of 2010 changed the date for admission to kindergarten in California, and a new grade level was created. Transitional kindergarten (TK) would be Year 1 of a 2-year Kindergarten experience for children whose birthdays fell on or between September 2 and December 2. Transitional kindergarten would focus on competency in social and emotional skills and emphasize the importance of a developmentally appropriate curriculum. Also, pre-literacy skills and mathematics would be introduced in TK. As TK approaches its sixth year of implementation, a limited amount of research is available on the effectiveness of an additional year of schooling for young students who meet birth date qualifications for TK. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of TK on the reading fluency of first graders. Reading fluency scores from 2nd trimester assessments were collected to determine if there is a difference in reading rate between first graders who attended TK and first graders who did not attend TK. An independent t-test was used to determine if a significant difference exists in reading fluency between first graders that attended TK and those that did not participate in TK. Through statistical analysis, the author found that there was a significant difference in reading fluency between first grade students who attended TK and first grade students who did not attend TK. Students who attended TK outperformed students who did not attend TK.

Book Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children

Download or read book Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-07-22 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most children learn to read fairly well, there remain many young Americans whose futures are imperiled because they do not read well enough to meet the demands of our competitive, technology-driven society. This book explores the problem within the context of social, historical, cultural, and biological factors. Recommendations address the identification of groups of children at risk, effective instruction for the preschool and early grades, effective approaches to dialects and bilingualism, the importance of these findings for the professional development of teachers, and gaps that remain in our understanding of how children learn to read. Implications for parents, teachers, schools, communities, the media, and government at all levels are discussed. The book examines the epidemiology of reading problems and introduces the concepts used by experts in the field. In a clear and readable narrative, word identification, comprehension, and other processes in normal reading development are discussed. Against the background of normal progress, Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children examines factors that put children at risk of poor reading. It explores in detail how literacy can be fostered from birth through kindergarten and the primary grades, including evaluation of philosophies, systems, and materials commonly used to teach reading.

Book Research in Young Children s Literacy and Language Development

Download or read book Research in Young Children s Literacy and Language Development written by Olivia N. Saracho and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-13 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of the early years in young children’s lives and the rigid inequality in literacy achievement are a stimulating backdrop to current research in young children’s language and literacy development. This book reports new data and empirical analyses that advance the theory of language and literacy, with researchers using different methodologies in conducting their study, with both a sound empirical underpinning and a captivating analytical rationalization of the results. The contributors to this volume used several methodological methods (e.g. quantitative, qualitative) to describe the complete concept of the study; the achievement of the study; and the study in an appropriate manner based on the study’s methodology. The contributions to this volume cover a wide range of topics, including dual language learners; Latino immigrant children; children who have hearing disabilities; parents’ and teachers’ beliefs about language development; early literacy skills of toddlers and preschool children; interventions; multimodalities in early literacies; writing; and family literacy. The studies were conducted in various early childhood settings such as child care, nursery school, Head Start, kindergarten, and primary grades, and the subjects in the studies represent the pluralism of the globe – a pluralism of language, backgrounds, ethnicity, abilities, and disabilities. This book was originally published as a special issue of Early Child Development and Care.

Book Variations in Preschool Education and the Impact on First Grade Student Reading Achievement

Download or read book Variations in Preschool Education and the Impact on First Grade Student Reading Achievement written by Sue Ellen Kanigsberg and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work examined variations in preschool education and the subsequent impact on first grade reading achievement in a sample of 64 children. The study was divided into three parts. The first part involved kindergarten and first grade teachers participating in a focus group interview where they were asked to share their views on issues relating to school readiness and the important early literacy skills children acquire during the preschool years. The second part of the study involved parents of second grade children reflecting on their child's early literacy preschool experiences. A survey was used to determine the child's preschool setting and the self-reported literacy practices used by parents with regards to their child's preschool experiences. The third part of the study examined DIBELS archival data that served as an intensive focus on measures of phonemic awareness and projected reading achievement. Results demonstrated that children who attended non-parental home-based preschool were slightly lower-performing kindergarteners in the area of early literacy. Findings generally confirm that children who attend a public pre-kindergarten setting enter kindergarten with somewhat higher levels of academic skills than children from other preschool settings.
