Literacy development is one of the most important components of a child's education. Both oral language and pre-literacy skills are strong predictors of young children's future reading ability. The child's home experiences are considered the foundation for the development of these skills. The purpose of this Minority Post-Doctoral Fellowship is to determine a relationship between home literacy factors and the development of language and literacy skills in young low-income Hispanic children, during their first two years of schooling, preschool and kindergarten. The sample for this study is drawn from a larger longitudinal study, "The Early Childhood Study of Language and Literacy Development in Spanish-Speaking Children," and it consists of 51 children and their families. The children were chosen for their placement into one of four categories of language proficiency: high English-high Spanish; high English-low Spanish; low English- high Spanish; and low English- low Spanish. Home visits were conducted with these families during the Spring 2002 and follow-up interviews will be done with the families in the Spring 2003. This third year of Fellowship support will allow for further interviewing, transcription, and coding of data, as well as publication of results.

识字发展是儿童教育最重要的组成部分之一。 口头语言和识字前的技能都是幼儿未来阅读能力的强有力的预测因素。 儿童的家庭经历被认为是发展这些技能的基础。 这个少数民族博士后奖学金的目的是确定家庭识字因素和语言和识字技能在年轻的低收入西班牙裔儿童的发展之间的关系，在他们的头两年的学校教育，学前班和幼儿园。本研究的样本来自一项更大的纵向研究，“西班牙语儿童语言和识字发展的早期儿童研究”，由51名儿童及其家庭组成。这些孩子被选入四个语言能力类别之一：高英语-高西班牙语;高英语-低西班牙语;低英语-高西班牙语;低英语-低西班牙语。2002年春季对这些家庭进行了家访，2003年春季将对这些家庭进行后续访谈。这第三年的奖学金支持将允许进一步的采访，转录和编码的数据，以及结果的出版。
