Opis: Literacy Development in the Early Years - Lesley Morrow

An integrated language arts approach to literacy development that brings early childhood perspectives on how children learn in pre-kindergarten though grade three, together with explicit teaching of literacy skills and strategies teachers need to make it all work. Pre-service and in-service teachers get a wealth of valuable information for making children active participants in the process of literacy development with this integrated approach to language arts. The book encourages teaching reading, writing, listening, thinking, and viewing at the same time, using each skill to develop the others, and discusses both constructivist problem-solving teaching and more explicit systematic instruction. Through both theoretical and research-based rationales, plus extensive practical applications, renowned author Lesley Mandel Morrow presents literacy development as an active process between children and adults to create meaning and real purpose-and helps pre- and in-service teachers grasp the scope and complexity of early literacy development. This comprehensive, balanced approach to literacy teaching and learning covers oral language development, word study, phonological awareness, phonics, comprehension, listening and writing. The reader is provided with a complete picture of early literacy development.Foreword Preface Acknowledgments Introduction Chapter 1 Foundations of Early Literacy Development: Surveying the Past to the Present Chapter 2 Assessment in Early Literacy: A Guide for Designing Instruction Chapter 3 Literacy and Diversity: Meeting Needs of Children with Special Concerns Chapter 4 Language and Vocabulary Development Chapter 5 Strategies to Figure Out Words: Phonological Awareness, Phonemic Awareness, and Phonics Chapter 6 Developing Comprehension of Text and Concepts about Books Chapter 7 Writing, Spelling, and Literacy Development Chapter 8 Motivating Reading and Writing Using Old and New Literacies Chapter 9 Organizing and Managing the Literacy Program Chapter 10 Family Literacy Partnerships: Home and School Working Together Afterword APPENDIX A Children's Literature APPENDIX B Integrated Language Arts Thematic Unit: Healthy Bodies and Healthy Minds APPENDIX C Quality Television Programs with Associated Children's Books APPENDIX D Technology Resources APPENDIX E Professional Associations and Related Journals Dealing with Early Literacy APPENDIX F Suggestions for Instructors Glossary Children's Literature Bibliography Bibliography Index
