About this subject
This subject explores the diverse nature of literacy and language development in 3-5 year olds.

Students will examine research relating to a variety of teaching approaches to establish strong literacy learning environments that support children who are beginning to read and write. The subject highlights the linguistic and cultural backgrounds children and families bring to early learning environments and consider how learning environments for 3–5-year-olds can value individual, and cultural diversity in relation to home and school literacy practices.
