1.1 Explain why reading is so important in the foundation
phase. (5)
Reading is crucial in the foundation phase for several reasons:
1. Cognitive Development: Reading stimulates cognitive
development and enhances skills like critical thinking,
problem-solving, and concentration.
2. Language Acquisition: It helps in vocabulary building,
understanding grammar, and overall language proficiency.
3. Academic Success: Early reading skills are predictors of
future academic achievement across subjects.
, 4. Social and Emotional Development: Reading stories can
improve empathy, understanding different perspectives,
and managing emotions.
5. Lifelong Learning: Instilling a love for reading early
encourages lifelong learning and curiosity.
1.2 Rule and Land (2017:2) state that “most South African
children do not learn to read well.” Justify the reason for
their statement. (5)
The statement by Rule and Land (2017:2) can be justified by
several factors:
1. Resource Limitations: Many schools lack adequate
resources, including books, libraries, and learning
materials.
2. Teacher Training: Insufficient training and professional
development for teachers in effective reading instruction.
3. Language Barriers: Children often learn in a language that
is not their mother tongue, complicating the reading
process.
4. Socioeconomic Factors: Poverty, lack of parental
involvement, and limited access to early childhood
education impact reading development.
5. Curriculum and Policy Issues: Inconsistencies and gaps
in the curriculum and educational policies may not
adequately support early reading skills.
1.3 Explain what you understand by ‘invented writing’ and
why children use invented writing. (5)
