Select the three pillars of Early Literacy: Concepts of Print, Letter Knowledge, Background Knowledge, Phonological and Phonemic Awareness.

Understand the Problem

The question is asking to identify and select the three main components or 'pillars' that are essential for Early Literacy development. These components help in understanding how children learn to read and write.

More Information

These pillars create a foundation for children as they start learning to read. Concepts of Print involves understanding how print works, Letter Knowledge is about recognizing letters and understanding that they represent sounds, and Phonological and Phonemic Awareness is about recognizing and working with sounds.

Tips

A common mistake is confusing phonological awareness with phonics, which involves the relationship between sounds and their spelling.
