“…The development of writing skills has been found to be essential to the development of reading skills, as print-related skills such as learning letters, writing one's name, and becoming acquainted with concepts and conventions of print are shown to be strong predictors of later reading (Clay 2001;Craig 2006;Farnan and Dahl 2003;Diamond et al 2008;Elliott and Olliff 2008;Hammill 2004;Puranik et al 2011;Ritchey 2008;Snow et al 1998). Diamond et al (2008) pointed out additional transfer between acquisition of reading and writing skills, noting that writing integrates the early literacy skills of phonological awareness and letter knowledge, allowing for the learning of letters and sounds. Specifically, these researchers have found that children with more refined writing knew the names of more letters, understood more about print concepts, and were more cognizant of the initial sounds of words.…”

“…Emphasizing its relationship with other emerging language and literacy proficiencies, primary grade teachers are encouraged to incorporate opportunities to write in their classrooms (Aram 2005;Clay 2001;Diamond et al 2008;Martin and Thacker 2009;Whitehurst and Lonigan 2001).

“…Dört yaşındaki çocukların kendi isimlerinin ilk harfini, 5-6 yaşlarındakilerin ise ilk isimlerini yazabilir hale geldiklerini ortaya koyan araştırma sonuçları ile bu bulgu farklılık göstermektedir Yang et al, 2006;Yin et al, 2013). İsim yazma becerilerinin de dahil olduğu gelişen okuryazarlık becerileri çeşitli toplumlarda desteklenmekte ve okul öncesi eğitimi kurumlarında bu becerilerin kazandırılmasına yönelik önemli çalışmalar yapılmaktadır (Diamond et al, 2008). Buna karşılık, Türkiye'de çocukların yazmayı öğrenmesinin ilkokula bırakılması önerilmektedir (Başar, 2013).…”

“…Bu bağlamda okul öncesi dönemde çocukların el-göz koordinasyonunu ve el-parmak kaslarını geliştirecek çalışmalara da yer verilmesi son derece önemlidir (Beaty, 2006). Diamond, Gerde ve Powell (2008) yazmaya ilişkin kavramlara yönelik farkındalık kazanan çocukların, harfleri daha kolay tanıdıklarını ve yazmaya yönelik hazırbulunuşluklarının daha gelişmiş olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Yangın'a (2007) göre ise çocukların yazmaya hazır duruma gelmeleri için okul öncesi dönemde kalemi doğru tutma, kâğıdı/defteri doğru tutma, gözle kâğıt arasında uygun uzaklık bırakma, serbest çizgiler çizme, resimler yapma, defter üzerinde düzenli çizgileri çizme vb.…”
