Identifier	Diss 9
Author	Gilmore, Gail A.
Title	What is the Impact of Small Group Literacy Instruction on Kindergarten Students' Text Comprehension?
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2005
Resource Type	Dissertation
Notes	The purpose of this study was to identify and describe the effectiveness of small group literacy instruction on kindergarten students' text comprehension. A comparison study of half-day kindergarten programs in an urban city in Educational Reference Group (ERG) H did provide quantitative data, utilizing the Developmental Reading Assessment. The small group literacy instructional model in this study may be a promising practice for use in other similar urban priority districts for enhancing literacy achievement in half-day kindergarten programs. Utilizing a model entitled Foundations of Literacy Development; this small group literacy model developed by certified teachers provided direct literacy instruction for children's achievement. This model provided up to 6 early literacy stations with a facilitator for each station daily in the kindergarten classroom. This is in contrast to the traditional single teacher kindergarten model that provided instruction in a 1 to 20 teacher-student ratio. Data was examined for a 4-year time frame. Two years of data were provided without small group instruction. This data was compared to 2 years of data with small group intervention. The findings of the study were statistically significant (p<.05) in favor of small group literacy instruction affecting students' text comprehension achievement. This study clarified the importance and significance of using a small group collaborative, cost-effective team approach for learning early literacy skills in kindergarten.
