Educational Psychology on Reading Acquisition - Dictionary of Arguments

Slater I 136
Reading acquisition/dyslexia/educational psychology: Regarding education, there is ongoing debate about the extent to which rhyme and alliteration should have a place in the early reading curriculum (e.g., Johnston & Watson, 2004)(1). This goes back to the Bradley and Bryant’s (1983)(2) study.
>Reading acquisition/Bradley/Bryant.
About how best to link oral language skills to reading and spelling instruction (e.g., Wyse & Goswami, 2008)(3), about potential social class differences in school entry skills in rhyme and alliteration (e.g., Raz & Bryant, 2000)(4), and about how to foster optimal home literacy environments before a child even enters school (e.g., Whitehurst et al., 1994)(5).
Slater I 139
VsBryant/VsBradley: Even for very consistent orthographies like German, focusing simply on training letter-sound relations does not bring the same benefits as an oral language training that is combined with letters (e.g., Schneider et al., 1997)(6).
