An Examination Of The Effects Of An Intergenerational Reading Workshop On The Listening Comprehension Of At-Risk Pre-Kindergarten Students, Marycarolyn G. France
An Examination Of The Effects Of An Intergenerational Reading Workshop On The Listening Comprehension Of At-Risk Pre-Kindergarten Students, Marycarolyn G. France
Theses and Dissertations in Urban Services - Urban Education
A surge of interest in working with parents to help their children build prerequisite language skills that would prevent reading failure has developed in recent years. The challenge of preventing reading failure in students is exacerbated when parents themselves have limited skills in reading. In recognition of this fact, schools and other institutions have begun to provide intergenerational programs to teach parents and children together. The workshop which is the subject of this study is one such program.
Thirteen parents and their pre-kindergarten children, who had been identified by the school as at-risk students, were exposed to an intergenerational reading …

Literature-Based Preschool Activities Using A Modified Whole Language Approach, Beverly M. Chandler
Literature-Based Preschool Activities Using A Modified Whole Language Approach, Beverly M. Chandler
All Graduate Projects
A review of the literature revealed higher academic expectations by today's teachers of kindergarten children than in the past. To prepare students more completely to meet these expectations fourteen preschool activities related to children's literature and based on a modified whole language approach were developed. The varied activities were designed to be used by teachers or parents of preschool children in order to better prepare the children to enter kindergarten with an exposure to, basic understanding of, and appreciation of children's literature.

Developing In-Class Activities To Support First-Second Grade Literature Instruction, Trina Danette Miller
All Graduate Projects
Literature-based activities were developed in the curriculum areas of Social Studies and Mathematics to be used with the district's adopted literature book program. A district survey indicated a strong interest in these two curriculum areas. This project will provide teachers with activities that support literature instruction in a learning center environment. The activities also help students to self-select a book of interest and to become actively involved in learning center activities that support the books of choice, plus increase their interest and comprehension.
Using Manipulatives To Teach Beginning Reading Skills, Veronique F. Rush
Using Manipulatives To Teach Beginning Reading Skills, Veronique F. Rush
All Graduate Projects
Based on a review of the literature, a reading curriculum for kindergarten children was created. The curriculum focuses on the learning of beginning reading skills through hands-on manipulative activities. The activities were arranged into ten centers. Each center related to beginning reading skills. Each activity is self-correcting and requires minimal verbal directions from the teacher.
Literature Strands For The Enhancement Of Language In The Early Childhood Classroom, Wendy Sue White
Literature Strands For The Enhancement Of Language In The Early Childhood Classroom, Wendy Sue White
All Graduate Projects
Literature and activities which support and enhance language learning in the early childhood classroom were examined. Seventy-six pieces of literature were selected along with thirty-two supporting activities. These were all described and matched for easy reference by the classroom teacher. A discussion of the importance of literature for the early childhood classroom, particularly that in which Engli~h is taught as a second language, has been included.

Parental Involvement: Using Workshops To Promote Beginning Reading, Dana Krieger Clauson
All Graduate Projects
Four workshops are designed to help parents of young children facilitate beginning reading. These workshops focus on techniques for reading aloud, using predictable materials, using environmental print, and constructing games. The workshops are aimed at parents of kindergarten children. The project includes research which provides a definition, rationale, and practical application of each topic, specific workshop designs, parent handouts, and teacher materials. Implications of the benefits of parent education and recommendations for future workshops are discussed.
Activities For Teaching Letter Identification, A. Kristin Seibel
Activities For Teaching Letter Identification, A. Kristin Seibel
All Graduate Projects
The focus of this project was to compile and design research based letter identification activities. Emphasis was placed on the highly confusable letters "b-d", "p-q", and "n-u". The activities were for use in the first grade curriculum. Learning objectives were stated for each activity. The activities, utilizing a variety of materials, were chosen and designed for hands-on application. Needed materials were listed, directions and patterns for construction were included, directions for use were provided, and classroom management was suggested. Use of the activities was divided into three parts: whole group introduction, guided practice, and small group activities.

Content-Based Approaches And Second Language Instruction, Pi-Chu Su
All Graduate Projects
Integration of content-based instruction into an English curriculum based on communicative goals is suggested to better solve the problems of materials and syllabus design in Taiwan. Historical antecedents and the rationales for content-based instruction are reviewed to illustrate a modern perspective on the interwoven relationship between language and content learning. The project proposes a three-year content-based English program for Taiwan's elementary and preschool students. A first year curriculum and model lessons for mathematics, science, social studies, and language arts are presented.

Portfolios As Developmentally Appropriate Assessment In Early Childhood Education, Deborah Thompson
Portfolios As Developmentally Appropriate Assessment In Early Childhood Education, Deborah Thompson
Dissertations and Theses
Traditional use of formal assessment techniques in early childhood education is not congruent with the knowledge and philosophies that have begun to guide curriculum and practice. The discontent with current assessment approaches has created a need to develop alternate assessment methods. The practice of portfolio assessment is posed as a developmentally appropriate alternative in this thesis. Current literature on portfolio assessment related to kindergarten/first grade setting supports portfolio assessment in both theory and practice in early childhood education.

The Effects Of Early Education On The Receptive Language Development Of Kindergarten Children, Barbara C. Everly
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a significant difference in the receptive language of children who had attended an early childhood education center, and those who had not. Subjects were 64 kindergarten students from an elementary school on a military base in the southeast. The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test- Revised (PPVT-R) was administered to all subjects. The t test for independent means was computed; no significant differences in mean scores existed between the two groups. Further analyses of the subjects were made to assess if age or gender influenced the results. The only significant difference …
Mountains Of Tibet (1989) By Mordecai Gerstein, Maughn B. Gregory
Mountains Of Tibet (1989) By Mordecai Gerstein, Maughn B. Gregory
Picture Books
High in the mountains of Tibet, a little girl was born who loved to fly kites. Mordecai Gerstein’s picture book, inspired by the Tibetan Book of the Dead, tells of the girl’s previous life as a Tibetan woodcutter who loved to fly kites, and the decisions he made after death to choose the circumstances of his next life. The idea of reincarnation belongs to the culture of many parts of the world. Some adults avoid discussing stories like this with children because they don’t want to face the question, ‘But is it really true?’ Children, however, are often more …
