1.3 Creating a conducive environment is crucial in developing emergent reading skills in
children. A conducive environment refers to the physical and social surroundings that
support and promote the development of reading skills. Here are some important roles
played by creating a conducive environment in developing emergent reading:
Encourages Reading Interactions: A well-designed environment provides opportunities
for children to engage in reading interactions. This can include having a comfortable
reading corner with books easily accessible, allowing children to explore and select books
of their choice, and arranging reading materials in an organized and inviting manner. These
opportunities encourage children to interact with books and foster a love for reading.
Stimulates Curiosity and Interest: A conducive environment helps to spark curiosity and
interest in reading. By incorporating visually appealing displays, colorful and attractive
pictures, and stimulating materials, children are more likely to be drawn towards books and
reading. This environment motivates children to explore and engage with reading
materials, which supports their emergent reading development.
Provides Access to a Variety of Reading Materials: An environment that offers a wide
range of reading materials, such as books, magazines, newspapers, and digital resources,
exposes children to various types of texts, topics, and genres. This exposure helps children
develop a rich vocabulary, comprehension skills, and a broad understanding of language
use. Having a diverse range of reading materials also accommodates individual interests
and preferences, allowing children to develop their reading skills at their own pace.
Promotes Literacy-Rich Activities: A conducive environment promotes literacy-rich
activities that encourage children to participate actively in reading-related experiences.
This can include activities like storytelling sessions, book clubs, reading circles, and author
