The home numeracy environment is an essential construct that helps explain children's numeracy skills.

This study describes the home numeracy environment of…

Zheng, Suhua – Global Studies of Childhood, 2023
The family is often thought of as a private space. Relatively little research has been done on the childhood space of the family. Although the family is often considered a warm haven for children to grow up in, it is also a space for child-adult conflict. Based on the researcher's self-parenting diary, this paper uses thematic analysis and…

Jinhee Kim – European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, 2025
When teachers teach geographic understanding in early childhood education, home is commonly used as the foremost environment in which children are situated. However, this paper raises a question concerning the interplay between the concepts of home, geography in the curriculum, and children's mobility. This study explores how home is addressed in…

Diana Leyva; Gloria Yeomans-Maldonado; Christina Weiland; Qianjin Guo; Anna Shapiro – Grantee Submission, 2024
Latino parents support children's academic skills through their involvement in daily living activities. Prior work has focused on conventional literacy (e.g., book reading) and numeracy activities (e.g., teaching numbers). Less-visible home activities that are high-priority, high-value cultural practices in Latino communities are food sharing…

Associations between home learning opportunities, parental growth mindset (the belief that intelligence is malleable), and children's academic skills have been documented primarily in European descent communities. Less is known about other communities. This study examined associations among home learning opportunities, parental mindsets, and child…

Krafft, Caroline; Raikes, Abbie; Towfighian, Samira Nikaein; Mojgani, Rebecca Sayre – World Bank, 2023
By the time children in low- and middle-income countries start primary school, large socioeconomic disparities are evident in children's learning and development. Both pre-primary and home environments can play important roles in influencing school readiness and can contribute to disparities in early childhood development, but there is limited…

Lee, Kerry – Early Child Development and Care, 2023
Working memory (WM) is highly predictive of academic performance, and individual differences in WM can already be observed in early childhood. However, obtaining accurate measures of WM in kindergarten-aged children is labour intensive. From an intervention perspective, identifying correlates of WM that are more readily measured can help identify…

Jimena Cosso; Gigliana Melzi – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2025
Recently, there have been calls to build a more inclusive knowledge base of the home numeracy environment (HNE) by diversifying the populations in our descriptive research. Given that Latine children are the fastest-growing population in the U.S. it is of the utmost importance to include Latine families and children in these efforts. The present…

Young children bring rich social, cultural, and political knowledge to school, cultivated in their homes and communities. This knowledge, ranging from household skills to multilingual practices, is often marginalized in schools that value different norms. Drawing from ethnographic studies in Illinois and New York kindergarten classrooms, this…
