Nurturing All Young Children's Language and Literacy Skills

Discover innovative ways to support the many aspects of children’s language and literacy development—oral language, reading, and writing. The articles in this collection emphasize meeting children’s unique needs, supporting dual language learners, and partnering with families to support children’s development. Specific topics include how teachers can:

  • Increase children’s vocabulary through conversations and storybook reading
  • Communicate with infants who have developmental delays 
  • Promote preschoolers’ fine motor development to prepare them for writing
  • Incorporate poetry and nonfiction into primary classrooms

Included is a professional development guide with questions and activities to help readers reflect on current teaching practices and inspire them to incorporate new ones.

This book is part of NAEYC’s best-selling Spotlight series―great resources for the college classroom and for professional development.

One of the notable features of this compilation is that it helps us think about promoting children’s language and literacy skills early―during the infant and toddler years. This is well justified. Numerous studies suggest that the quality of language experiences in the earliest years of life affects children’s later language development (e.g., Hart & Risley 1995; Hadley et al. 2011). The content in this collection continues through the second and third grade years. Such focus is critical, as children’s language and literacy skills in these grades predict later literacy achievement (e.g., Nation & Snowling 2004; Catts et al. 2012).
