- Title
The Relationship of Drawing and Early Literacy Skills Development in Kindergarten Children.
- Authors
Selvester, Paula; Steffani, Susan
- Abstract
This study supports and extends previous research that suggests there is a relationship between picture drawing and writing. The study explores the picture drawing ability of kindergarteners (n = 33), their ability to draw pictures of objects, and their early literacy assessments. Significant results were found for drawing (specifically drawing of a house and overall drawing scores) and alphabet writing. Relationships between kindergarteners' drawing and their early literacy assessment performance are explored.
