Reading readiness is one of the skills given to early childhood through playing while learning. Kindergarten children are given assignments in the form of worksheets and the teacher will ask those children to read and then mention the words back on their worksheet. If the learning system to read like this were practiced repeatedly, the child will get bored. Reading readiness can be done through telling stories and using flash cards. One of the behaviors that show the child is in the reading readiness stage is when a child who is able to use spoken language to express an object. This can be realized through the show and tell method, which is a method that provides opportunities for children to learn new things through storytelling and listening to stories from their friends. This study aims to see the application of the show and tell method on reading readiness of kindergarten children. Participants in this study were 16 TK B students in PAUD FL which were divided into two groups, namely EG (Experiment Group) and CG (Control Group). Participants will be provided with an adapted Reading Readiness Assessment test kit and an Expressive Vocabulary Test as additional analysis given at the beginning and end of the study. The data analysis used an independent sample t-test which resulted that the method show and tell was ineffective for the reading readiness of kindergarten children (t = 1,678; p = 0.114) but the method show and tell was effective in increasing the number of children’s word to describe something (t = 4.961; p = 0.001) and children's vocabulary (t = 4,797; p = 0.002). Kesiapan membaca merupakan salah satu keterampilan yang diberikan kepada anak usia dini melalui kegiatan bermain sambil belajar. Anak TK diberikan tugas dalam bentuk lembar kerja dan meminta anak untuk membaca lalu menuliskan kembali kata yang ada pada lembar kerja tersebut. Apabila sistem belajar membaca seperti ini dilakukan berulang, maka anak akan merasa jenuh. Kesiapan membaca dapat dilakukan dengan cara bercerita, mendongeng dan penggunaan media flash card. Salah satu perilaku yang menunjukkan anak berada dalam tahap kesiapan membaca adalah anak mampu menggunakan bahasa lisan untuk menceritakan suatu objek. Hal ini dapat diwujudkan dalam metode tunjukkan dan ceritakan, yaitu metode yang memberikan peluang bagi anak untuk belajar hal baru melalui kegiatan bercerita dan mendengarkan cerita teman sekelompoknya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat efektivitas penerapan metode tunjukkan dan ceritakan terhadap kesiapan membaca anak TK. Partisipan pada penelitian ini adalah 16 murid TK B di PAUD FL yang dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu KE (Kelompok Eksperimen) dan KK (Kelompok Kontrol). Partisipan akan diberikan alat tes Reading Readiness Assessment yang telah diadaptasi serta Expressive Vocabulary Test sebagai analisis tambahan yang diberikan pada awal dan akhir penelitian. Analisis data menggunakan uji beda yang menunjukkan hasil bahwa metode tunjukkan dan ceritakan tidak efektif terhadap kesiapan membaca anak TK (t = 1.678; p = 0.114) namun metode tunjukkan dan ceritakan efektif untuk meningkatkan jumlah kata anak (t = 4.961; p = 0.001) dan jumlah kosakata anak (t = 4.797; p = 0.002).

Background. Language disorder is the most frequent developmental disorder in childhood and it has a significant negative impact on children’s development. The goal of the present review was to systematically analyze the effectiveness of interventions in children with developmental language disorder (DLD) from an evidence-based perspective. Methods. We considered systematic reviews, meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), control group cohort studies on any type of intervention aimed at improving children’s skills in the phono-articulatory, phonological, semantic-lexical, and morpho-syntactic fields in preschool and primary school children (up to eight years of age) that were diagnosed with DLD. We identified 27 full-length studies, 26 RCT and one review. Results. Early intensive intervention in three- and four-year-old children has a positive effect on phonological expressive and receptive skills and acquisitions are maintained in the medium term. Less evidence is available on the treatment of expressive vocabulary (and no evidence on receptive vocabulary). Intervention on morphological and syntactic skills has effective results on expressive (but not receptive) skills; however, a number of inconsistent results have also been reported. Only one study reports a positive effect of treatment on inferential narrative skills. Limited evidence is also available on the treatment of meta-phonological skills. More studies investigated the effectiveness of interventions on general language skills, which now appears as a promising area of investigation, even though results are not all consistent. Conclusions. The effectiveness of interventions over expressive and receptive phonological skills, morpho-syntactic skills, as well as inferential skills in narrative context underscores the importance that these trainings be implemented in children with DLD.

Early childhood is a formative period during which healthy habits are developed, including proper hand hygiene practices. The aim of this quasi-experimental study was to determine the effectiveness of a 4-week series of educational sessions that consider the cognitive developmental stage of children on increasing their knowledge and promoting hand hygiene practices. The intervention group (n = 33) observed the hand hygiene program, whereas another group served as the waitlist control (n = 20). Creative activities were planned for the illustration of hand hygiene concepts in terms of “right moments”, “right steps”, and “right duration”. Hand sanitizer coverage was evaluated using a hand scanner. After the intervention, the experimental group had higher knowledge level toward hand hygiene than the control group (p < 0.001). Significant improvements in hand hygiene performance at the left palm and dorsum (p < 0.05), right palm (p < 0.05), and overall hand coverage (p < 0.05) were observed in the experimental group. The study demonstrated that the knowledge and proper hand hygiene (HH) practice of children can be positively influenced by the use of an age-appropriate education program. The results of this study have implications for school health educators and parents for promoting HH practices among children at home and at the school level.

ABSTRACT Introduction Return-to-duty (RTD) readiness assessment for service members (SM) following concussion requires complex clinical considerations. The Portable Warrior Test of Tactical Agility (POWAR-TOTAL) is a functional assessment which improves on previous laboratory-based RTD assessments. Methods Sixty-four SM diagnosed with concussion and 60 healthy control (HC) SM participated in this study. Group differences were analyzed to validate the POWAR-TOTAL. The High-level Mobility Assessment Test (HiMAT) was used to examine concurrent construct validity. An exploratory logistic regression analysis examined predictive validity. Results The groups were demographically well-matched except for educational level. POWAR-TOTAL measures were statistically significantly different between the groups with moderate to large effect sizes. Concussed participants were less likely to be able to complete all trials of the POWAR-TOTAL. Motor scores correlated highly with HiMAT scores. POWAR-TOTAL motor task performance and membership in the control group was significantly associated with self-reported physical readiness to deploy. Conclusion The POWAR-TOTAL is a clinically feasible, military relevant assessment that is sensitive to differences between concussed and HC SM. This analysis supports the discriminant and construct validity of the POWAR-TOTAL, and may be useful for medical providers evaluating RTD readiness for SM who have sustained a concussion.

EFL learners at all ages and proficiency levels are usually confronted with various problems in vocabulary learning and retention. This study sought to introduce strategies for improvement of vocabulary learning and retention. Therefore, the effects of using aural/visual storytelling on Iranian EFL learners’ vocabulary learning and retention were investigated. To do so, 50 intermediate female EFL learners were randomly assigned to two groups. After the administration of teacher made English Vocabulary Test as the pre-test, aural storytelling method was used for the control group, and visual storytelling method was used for the experimental group. After three months of instruction, the aforementioned teacher made English Vocabulary Test, as the post-test, was given to the students of both groups to assess their improvements. Two weeks after post-test, they were given a delayed post-test to measure their retention of English vocabulary knowledge. The reliability of the English Vocabulary Test using Cronbach's Alpha was estimated equal to 0.80. Finally, Using ANCOVA, the results revealed that, the experimental group’s participants outperformed those of control group in both learning and retention of English vocabulary. So, it can be noted that the training program according to visual could have impressive impact on the learning and retention of vocabulary knowledge.

Belajar membaca ialah suatu proses perkembangan yang berlaku secara berterusan dan kesediaan merupakan konsep yang wujud dalam pelbagai peringkat belajar membaca tersebut. Kesediaan membaca pula biasanya dikatakan sebagai peringkat paling awal dalam kemahiran membaca secara tidak formal yang membabitkan kanak-kanak. Kesediaan membaca melibatkan tret asas umum yang dapat membantu kanak–kanak memulakan alam akademiknya tanpa banyak menghadapi masalah. Sebagai usaha mengkaji kebolehan aspek kognitif dalam kemahiran membaca, ujian kesediaan membaca dalam bahasa Melayu telah dibangunkan. Ujian ini merangkumi enam aspek, iaitu diskriminasi visual, kesedaran fonologi, huruf dan hubungan huruf–bunyi, melengkapkan ayat berpandukan huruf, kata pandang–sebut, dan pemahaman lisan. Ujian ini telah diberikan kepada 130 orang kanak–kanak tadika yang dipilih secara rawak daripada enam buah tadika untuk menentukan kestabilan psikometrik ujian tersebut. Analisis uji–uji semula yang dijalankan menunjukkan bahawa ujian yang dibangunkan mempunyai kebolehpercayaan yang agak tinggi, iaitu lebih daripada 0.80, justeru menunjukkan kegunaan pragmatis ujian ini. Diharapkan ujian ini dapat membantu pihak tadika dalam mengenal pasti kanak–kanak yang memerlukan penumpuan khusus dalam proses pembelajaran merkea, terutamanya dalam aspek membaca. Kata kunci: Kesediaan; kesediaan membaca; ujian kesediaan membaca Learning to read is an on–going developmental process and readiness is just a concept in the various stages of learning to read. Reading readiness is often referred as the earliest stage of informal reading skills that involve young children. It is the basic common traits which would help a child to begin his academic endeavour without much difficulties. To study the ability of cognitive aspect on reading, a reading readiness test in bahasa Melayu was developed. This test consists of six aspects, namely visual discrimination, phonological awareness, letter and letter–sound relationship, aural cloze with letter, sight words, and listening comprehension. This test was given to 130 kindergarten children randomly selected from six kindergartens to determine its psychometric stability. A test–retest analysis shows that the test has a fairly high reliability of more than 0.80, hence suggests its pragmatic utility. It is hoped that the test would enable kindergarten authority in identifying students who need special attention in their learning process, specifically in reading. Key words: Readiness; reading readiness; reading readiness test
