Literacy Instruction in Half- And Whole-Day Kindergarten: Research to Practice (Literacy Studies Series)

The authors present their research about emergent literacy instruction in half- and whole-day kindergarten and outline a program for kindergarten instruction. Based on their extensive observations, the authors discuss frameworks for designing the literacy curriculum and plans for organizing the classroom in whole-day and half-day kindergartens.

Classroom teachers, supervisors of reading and early childhood programs, and researchers will find many of their questions about the length of the kindergarten day and best practices in early literacy answered in this book.
