My Writing is a tool that preschool children can use to improve their reading and writing skills, which can be used both at school and at home. This tool was developed based on the Language Experience Approach (LEA) and is in the form of an Android application designed for children. It is used to help children understand that the spoken language can be altered into the written one and still retains its meaning. 10 teachers were included in this study and data were collected from teacher opinions and assessments. The findings showed that My Writing is an effective application for developing literacy in young children, and that it is easy to use by children and parents, making it simple for teachers to assess children’s literacy skills while they study at home.

For parents of children with speech-language impairments, the assumption that their children will become literate is a natural, but not always fulfilled, expectation. This study explored the literacy experiences reported to be available in the homes of three groups of preschool children. Surveys were sent to the families of children aged 3 to 5 years who had (a) a speech-language impairment, (b) a disability other than speech-language impairment, and (c) no disability or delay. Respondents described the literacy-related materials and activities that were made available to the children at home. Respondents also described the children’s and adult’s reading and writing behaviors at home. Despite similarities in socioeconomic status, age, access to materials, and parental expectations for the children’s literacy abilities at age 21, the results suggested significantly different activities and interactions with print for the group of children with speech-language impairments. Implications for the design of early literacy and language intervention programs are discussed. The importance of considering the child’s literacy experiences at home in the assessment of the child’s language and literacy needs is also highlighted.

The national literacy movement must be supported by all parties and implemented comprehensively, not only at school but also at home. Literacy education should be started early from home by parents, especially mothers, because reading activities together between parents and children have been proven to be able to develop children's literacy. Therefore, this Assisted Village Service activity, which focuses on Read Aloud training for mothers, is important to carry out. The Read Aloud training is to train mothers to read children's story books, to produce a deep understanding of the importance of introducing literacy to children from an early age in October 2018. This fostered village service involves several mothers who have toddlers and other women's associations such as people's associations. PAUD parents in the Sariwangi Village area, West Java. This activity trains mothers in selecting stories for children and reading stories to and/or with children. Through this activity, it is hoped that mothers can instill literacy skills from an early age in children

This study attempted to maximize environmental language learning for four hearing-impaired children. The children's mothers were systematically trained to present specific language symbols to their children at home. An increase in meaningful use of these words was observed during therapy sessions. In addition, as the mothers began to generalize the language exposure strategies, an increase was observed in the children's use of words not specifically identified by the clinician as targets.
