Which of the following best characterizes emergent reader behaviors?

A) buy comic books
B) get their child a library card
C) discuss stories and experiences at home
D) volunteer in the school's media center


Ans: C) discuss stories and experiences at home
This practice is recommended based upon research by Jim Trelease and the National Institute of Education's Commission on Reading. Buying comic books does not guarantee a child will engage in reading independently. Obtaining a library card does not ensure a child will go to the library and get books to read independently. Although volunteering in the school's media center is a nice practice, volunteering does not promote family involvement in literacy activities.
