Play on Paper PLAY ON PAPER is a short booklet that introduces pre-kindergarten and entering kindergarten children to a number of reading readiness concepts. The first two pages are for information about the child and for a child to draw a picture of himself or herself. The next two pages are for recording information about the child's favorite stories: title, author, and reason why the story is liked. Then the first three letters of the alphabet are introduced, both upper and lower case, with opportunities for letter matching. This is followed by a page where the child can create a picture out of letter forms. A pull-out section, inserted between the "Cc" page and the letter picture page, contains the complete alphabet, upper and lower case, in a script commonly used in prereading and initial reading materials. The next section of the booklet provides practice in rhyming and matching words by their initial sounds. Completing the booklet are pages for practicing the numbers 0-9 and for dictating phrases or sentences to the heading "What I want to Learn in School." On the last page, continuing on to the inside of the back cover is a second alphabet chart. This one, however, includes directional arrows, indicating for each letter the correct stroke order for printing. See the Play on Paper Activity Booklet You can use Read Write Now! Materials at:

Engaging these children in reading experiences appropriate to their current levels of literacy is the best approach to closing the gap between their skills and those of their more reading-advantaged peers. For the early elementary students with the lowest performance this means going back all children, including those at risk, learn to enjoy, value, and benefit from schooling.

Current research and practice point to four component concepts that, when mastered in kindergarten, insure successful reading in Grade One. They are: 1. Print Awareness knowledge that people read the text, not just look at the pictures awareness of how to read a book – right side up, starting with the first page and continuing to the end; the left page is read first; text is read from left to right understands that words are units separated by spaces 2.

National Research Council releases New Study on the Teaching of Reading Janet W. Lerner Northeastern Illinois University A new study on reading, "Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children," which was conducted by the National Research Council, was published on March 18, 1998. This two- year, 390 page report analyzed research on reading and translated this research into instructional activities. The committee called for an end to the "Reading Wars" about how to teach reading, establishing that successful reading instruction requires a variety of approaches. Here are some of the conclusions reached by the 17 member panel of reading experts on this committee of the National Research Council: The ability to read is important for success in our society and the demands for higher literacy are increasing. All young children need environments that support early literacy development Intensive and systematized early intervention is needed for young children who are at-risk for reading failure. There is no one way to teach reading. Children need to learn letters and sounds and how to read for meaning. They also need opportunities to practice reading with many types of books.
