Young Children's Oral Language, Reading and Writing.
Thomas, Karen F.; Rinehart, Steven D.
Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v5 n1 p5-26 Fall-Win 1990
Examines the oral language and related literacy performances of four four-year olds to determine the role and functions of oral language in prekindergarten classroom exchanges, writing episodes, and print-awareness tasks. Children who are adept in oral use of Halliday's seven functions have a developed sense of their culture's literacy and perform literacy tasks accordingly. (SH)
