The Early Development of Literacy and Numeracy Skills.
Munn, Penny
European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, v2 n1 p5-18 1994
Interviewed 49 Scottish preschoolers about their understanding of literacy and numeracy. Found that children of this age group often held erroneous or conflicting beliefs about their ability to read or count. Subjects indicated some understanding of the generalities of story reading and counting before they could actually perform either activity. (MDM)
