Dr. Wade Horn on Kids: Jewish World Review March 30, 2000 /23 Adar II, 5760 Preschool Not A Must for Academic Success By Dr. Wade F. Horn http://www.jewishworldreview.com Q: The deadline for enrolling our son in a pre-school program starting in the fall is fast approaching. There are two highly regarded preschools within a mile of our home, but the two have different philosophical approaches. One of them has somewhat of an academic approach, teaching children mastery of the basics, such as numbers and the alphabet. The other rejects this kind of teaching in favor of "developmentally appropriate" learning. One example given by the latter preschool of developmentally appropriate learning is that all ages (2 through 4) follow the same themes (for example, holidays, family, etc.), but the difference might be that a 2-year-old will be given a triangle to color related to the theme, a 3-year-old will cut out a triangle that has been traced on a piece of paper, and a 4-year-old will be asked to trace and cut a triangle out of the paper himself. Our son, who will be 2 1/2 in the fall, has been cared for full-time by his mother and shows signs of being exceptionally bright. He speaks in beautiful complete sentences, knows the alphabet, and can count, although not always accurately. On the one hand, he seems ready for academic learning; on the other hand, we're not sure that kind of approach is appropriate at his age.

California Dept of Education A-Z Index Search Help ... Resources Sample Reading Curriculum Timeline Preschool Through Eighth Grade Reading Teaching Timeline The following suggested timeline is a sample for districts and schools to use in planning for a comprehensive reading program. Each category on the chart represents an essential component of balanced reading instruction, and the examples of activities in each strand represent a range of instruction possible in that component. This timeline is not intended as an exhaustive list but only as a suggested plan for districts to use in developing an effective reading program. Reading and literacy instruction also are integral components of middle school and secondary programs. Reading programs should be dynamic and powerful and meet the needs of all readers, including encouraging students who are good readers to move ahead and providing intensive support for the lowest achievers. While the components in the timeline are suggestions for teachers regarding classroom activities, it is the students who need to be actively engaged in the learning process. They should have many opportunities to draw on their prior knowledge and respond critically to what they read and write based on their own experiences. It is important to remember, too, that reading does not occur in isolation. Reading, writing, speaking, and listening are linked as a child becomes competent in English-language arts. There should be a deliberate forging of connections among grades, content areas, and all members of the education community whose work affects children and their reading abilities. The continuum of instruction should be seamless while recognizing and adjusting for individual needs based on each child's actual learning.

III. Preschool Reading and the Bilingual Child Mariana and Elena Past Learn to Read English and Spanish How the Christian Children Learned to Read Spanish and English A Case of Korean/English Bilingualism and Biliteracy Plurilingualism and Pluriliteracy ... Summary If a monolingual child can get a headstart by learning to read before going to school, why can't a bilingual child get a double headstart by learning to read two languages before entering school? No one would deny the educational importance of skill in reading; nor would many deny the advantage of a knowledge of two spoken languages. The theoretical advantage of knowing how to read and write in two languages would seem to be self-evident, and yet biliteracy is rarely emphasized as an objective in our schools. This is an intriguing fact. Is there perchance a parallel between this fact and that other widely recognized fact that illiteracy and semiliteracy are common in our schools? If early readers rarely have difficulties in school, can we assume that bilingual children too would have no difficulties if they learned how to read in two languages before entering school? Personally I like Chester Christian's statement and implied solution of the problem: In an important sense, the education of those who speak two languages can never be "equal" to the education of monolinguals; it must be inferior or superior. Whether it will be the one or the other depends heavily on whether literacy is provided in only one or in both languages. (
