Additional Evaluation #2:Literacy-Rich Environments
• Create a list of:– The materials/activities that you used to model
reading– The materials/activities that you used to model writing
• What was the frequency of the above events?

Additional Practice #3:Literacy-Rich Environments
• Let’s see what happens when you change the environment:
– Introduce one new piece of literacy-related material to either the big block area or the sensory area.
– Informally observe the chosen area over the course of a morning or afternoon.

Additional Evaluation #3:Literacy-Rich Environments
• How did the children use the newly introduced literacy-related material?
• What additional literacy-related learning activities occurred as a result of the new material?

Additional Reflection #3:Literacy-Rich Environments
• How would the activity have changed if a child had chosen a new literacy-related material instead of you?
• Why would there be a difference?
• In other words, if a child had chosen a new piece of literacy-related material do you think the interest would be stronger? Would engagement time have been longer?
