Literacy

I’ve always enjoyed reading especially books that had a lot of repetition.  It helped me to think about what the reader was trying to convey.  When I asked the interviewees; “What are some current issues related to literacy?” It was stated to me that literacy is not seen as having much affect in the early years of life.  It’s something that happens when the child gets older round about the age of five and six.  A lot of times, upon entering school, children lack pre-literacy skills.  Pre-literacy skills are vital in the early years because it sets the tone for the child’s future in a positive and productive way.
