Abstract

Creating preschool learning environments that foster pre-reading and pre-writing skills is essential for young children's development. This article analyzes the benefits of such environments, including providing frequent, natural exposure to print in everyday activities; promoting children's active participation and initiative in developing pre-reading and pre-writing skills; supporting the coordinated development of the components of emergent literacy; and offering continuous, flexible learning opportunities that accommodate individual differences. Based on this analysis, the author proposes three measures to support the development of emergent literacy holistically, enhance overall language development, and prepare children for entry into first grade.

Keywords: Children aged 5–6, educational environment, pre-reading and pre-writing instruction.
