Key Words: Reclaiming Children's Precious Vocabulary is about early
and emergent literacy- it promotes the concept that each child
possesses a key vocabulary of words that are special and magical.
These words conjure emotions that can lead them into the enterprise
of reading. Words such as mom or love or a sister's name, a friend,
or a beloved game - these expressions are read by the young child
even before they have commenced formal decoding. They are sight
words - but of a special kind, because they evoke an emotional
response. They are called "key" and each child might well produce
her or his own key ring of thirty or forty words. They become the
stuff of writing, the personal and the meaningful, in accordance
with all of the honored theory about nurturing young writers. This
book is full of classroom stories that elaborate the process of a
key word approach. The stories are humorous, engaging and
inspiring. They are accompanied by specific, detailed guidelines
for instituting a key word program in any early childhood
classroom. Special attention is paid to students' progression into
writing curriculum as an outgrowth of doing words. The context of
culturally relevant, equity and anti-bias education is established
throughout every chapter.
