5.0 out of 5 stars A Inexpensive, Comprehensive Guide To EC Literacy, January 10, 2007

Reginald Williams (Orangeburg, SC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Building a Foundation for Preschool Literacy: Effective Instruction for Children's Reading and Writing (Paperback)

What I love about this book (as with all the books in this series) is the simplicity in comprehensiveness.

This book tells in a less than 200 page how to set up and enrich your classroom and instruction so as to foster literacy in young children. They not only elaborate on the concept of the read aloud and shared reading (for example) but also they talk about these techniques on a theoretical level (i.e. read alouds are a key application of teh language experience approach to teaching reading).

Get this excellent book as well as the other books in the series: WRITING IN PRESCHOOL, LEARNING ABOUT PRINT IN PRESCHOOL, ORAL LANGUAGE AND EARLY LITERACY IN PRESCHOOL,USING CHILDREN'S LITERATURE IN PRESCHOOL.
