Abstract

Beginning first grade with limited literacy skills creates a disadvantage for academic success. Alphabet knowledge, phonological awareness, and oral language skills are crucial for age-appropriate performance within most first grade curricula. Home literacy environments can help to create positive literacy and language experiences, but many children do not have stable homes in which to learn, thrive, and feel safe. In this case study, background information is presented for a child who is currently in foster care and has weak early literacy skills. Assessment and intervention plans are reviewed and recommendations for the foster parent are provided.
