Emergent literacy strategies should provide children with opportunities to learn regardless of age or background experience. Early childhood educators who supply their students with a rich learning environment based on proven reading research strategies set the stage for success. Early literacy encompasses a wealth of information for children to learn. Systematic and comprehensive instruction should be tailored to the needs of students. Family involvement and a partnership between home and school serve as an essential component in a child’s literacy needs. The ideas presented in this article were designed to enhance teacher knowledge and comprehension on how children learn to read and write.
