Emergent literacy of bilingual kindergarteners.
Abstract
This case study compares two bilingual kindergartener's emergent literacy development with the purpose of identifying possible issues and research questions concerning bilingual children's literacy development. Observational data was examined based on an emergent literacy framework proposed by Whitehurst and Lonigan. Findings suggest that social and functional engagement in the literacy practice may be influenced by sociocultural factors which require attention in future research.
