- Abstract
This descriptive study uses a quantitative, cross-sectional design that reviews some pre-reading skills that account for student readiness in a sample of preschoolers from a low socio-economic background in the Caribbean region of Colombia. Several measures were used: DIBELS, PLS 4, NEPSY II and the BOHEM-3 to assess auditory comprehension, phonological awareness, speed of naming, speed of processing, and relational concepts. Results show that 70% of the students achieve average and above average results in auditory comprehension and knowledge of relational concepts. The rest of the skills show age-equivalent scores below expectations. Results reflect contextual differences, as a function of school, socio economic level, and socio demographic variables.
