Literacy practices of primary education children in Andalusia (Spain): a family-based perspective

Abstract

Primary school children develop literacy practices in various domains and situations in everyday life. This study focused on the analysis of literacy practices of children aged 8–12 years from the perspec- tive of their families. 1,843 families participated in the non-experimental explanatory study. The children in these families speak Spanish as a first language and are schooled in this language. The instrument used was a self-report questionnaire about children’s home-literacy practices. The data obtained were analysed using categorical principal components analysis (CATPCA) and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results show the complex relationship between literacy practices developed by children in the domains of home and school and the limited development of a literacy-promoting ‘third space’. In conclusion, the families in our study had limited awareness of their role as literacy- promoting agents and thought of literacy learning as restricted to formal or academic spaces.

Child en’s li e acy-p omo ing p ac ices de elop in he home and a school in ela ion

whe e one li e acy-p omo ing p ac ice was c ea ed and is used in a ecu ing manne
(Ba on & Hamil on, 1998); on he o he hand, he loca ion o place whe e he li e -

Rowsell (2012) no e ha homewo k pe o med by p ima y pupils belongs o he

Li e acy domains: Be ween home and school
Du ing he i s ew p ima y school yea s, he home domain plays a mo e ele an ole

The esea ch by James (2008) shows how he digi al di ide becomes e iden in he

Ma sh e al. (2017) ha e shown how li e acy in he amily con ex assumes a ole o
