Category - Foundations of Reading

A prekindergarten teacher is reading a storybook to the class so that the children can see the words and pictures while the teacher points to the line of print. This activity best contributes to the children's emergent reading development primarily by:
  1. Promoting their development of letter-recognition skills.
  2. Helping them recognize the function of spaces between words.
  3. Developing their awareness of left-to-right directionality.
  4. Promoting their understanding of letter-sound correspondence.
Explanation
Correct Response: C. Option C is correct because, by following the line of print with a finger or pointer while reading, the teacher provides students with a visual demonstration that print is read from left to right. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because in the scenario described the teacher does not explicitly identify letters (A), spaces between words (B), or letter-sound correspondences related to the text (D).
