The authors of this text created a set of principles of effective early literacy instruction. These are printed below. Read the description of a teacher's early literacy practice. Describe which of the principles are evidenced in this description. Be sure to describe how the principle is evidenced in the description. The Principles of Effective Early Childhood Teachers: • explicitly teach
children skills that research supports as key elements of reading, writing, and speaking • provide children with a print-rich classroom environment • read to children daily • demonstrate and model literacy events • provide opportunities for children to work and play together in literacy-enriched environments • link literacy and play • encourage children to experiment with emergent forms of reading and writing • provide opportunities for children to use language and literacy for real purposes and audience • make use of everyday activities to demonstrate the many purposes of reading and writing • use multiple forms of assessment to find out what children know and can do • respect and make accommodations for children's developmental, cultural, and linguistic diversity • recognize the importance of reflecting on their instructional decisions • build partnerships with parents The Description The children I work with are ages 4 and 5 years, and live in a rural area, with a strong Hispanic influence. One of the region's most interesting traditions is the Saturday morning market. Families bring their produce and many home crafts to sell at the local fairgrounds. The bilingual children are expected to help their parents tend the family booth. The children also enjoy shopping at other booths. To begin the year, I initiated a dramatic play center that resembled two sales booths. The children helped to decide what materials needed to be placed in the booths. We made illustrated lists and sent home a letter (in both Spanish and English) to the parents asking to have items donated to our center. Most of the families responded by sending one or two of their family's specialties. As we organized the center, we included price tags on the merchandise, set up a cash box, put receipt forms in the center to record purchases, established a turn-taking schedule, and pretended to buy and sell. Since one of the children's grandfathers had helped to establish the market, he came to talk about the market's history. The children created a list of questions they wanted to ask him. I recorded their questions on large chart paper. So they would recall the questions, I posted the chart paper in our group area. After his visit, I shared several examples of thank you notes with the children. During center time, each child wrote and illustrated a thank you note to the grandfather. Of course, some of the children wrote using linear scribble lines. I wrote the child's message on a post it note that I attached to the thank you note so that the grandfather would know what the child said in the note. During the first month of school we used the market center to study math, social studies, history, science, and health curriculum. We read books about markets, both informational and narrative texts. What will be an ideal response?
