One important aspect of early childhood literacy that I learned today is that literacy is cultural. Since families come from many different cultures they learn words and make connections and meaning of those words differently than other families. In class each group drew a diagram of representing important information on literacy. Drawing a diagram was a great way to visualize how families in different households are all connected to school. Children learn literacy at home through their cultures as well as in the classroom.
