Changes in Parent Involvement Across the Transition from Public School Prekindergarten to First Grade and Children's Academic Outcomes (2012, background): “For example, research on low-income preschool children indicates that children’s home experiences in playing number board games is related to numerical knowledge (Ramani & Siegler, 2008), and parent-child reading interactions are linked to children’s early literacy skills (Bracken & Fischel, 2008).”
Family Engagement, Diverse Families, and Early Childhood Education Programs: An Integrated Review of the Literature (2009, background): “Bracken and Fischel (2008) found that parent-child interaction and access to literacy materials was significantly related to children’s emergent literacy including child’s receptive vocabulary, story and print concepts and general emergent literacy skills for low-income preschoolers in Head Start.”
The language of play: developing preschool vocabulary through play following shared book-reading (2018, background): “Both quantity and quality of early language input play a large role in language development (Cartmill et al., 2013; Goldin-Meadow et al., 2014; Hirsh-Pasek, Adamson et al., 2015), and quality often mediates the relation between socioeconomic status and language outcomes (Bracken & Fischel, 2008 .”
Why poor children are more likely to become poor readers: the early years (2014, background): “The relationship between socio-economic status and early HLE is not perfect, however; wide variations have been found in early HLE quality between households with similar socio-economic characteristics (Bracken and Fischel 2008; Chazan-Cohen et al. 2009; Milne and Plourde 2006).”
Links Among Home Literacy Environment, Literacy Interest, and Emergent Literacy Skills in Preschoolers At Risk for Reading Difficulties (2012, background): “…studies using child-reported literacy interest measures with older children (Frijters et al., 2000) and with studies using different methods of measuring child interest (e.g., parentreport, observation) with preschool children (Bracken & Fischel, 2008; Deckner et al., 2006; Farver et al., 2006).”
