It has been long seen that there has been a direct relationship between influences of home circumstances and school learning, enhancing the intellectual development of a child. The relationship of the home background and the academic behavior carries a great deal of importance as there are many research conducted in this regard. Moreover, the findings of these research suggest in a collective manner that the individual's ability to learn can be enhanced by being literate and eventually leading to better health and wellbeing (O'Neill, 2011). In addition to the stated facts both home and school environment are conducive enough to play a major role in placing an individual on literacy and a lifelong learning path.
In day-to-day exchange, children are concurrently learning the language and experiencing theories present in their respected communities. Moreover, children who face different linguistic and cultural experiences, later defines what children become when they grow up as it depends on the companionship they keep based on what their learning community does and say collectively. Literacy is strongly dependant on the cumulative behavior present to the child at home and school. In addition to that the emphasize sticks to power of language which carries the ability to form the consciousness in a human child for interpreting the environment according to the literate learning of the child (O'Neill, 2011). However, the school environment produces learning objectives for children according to the diverse backgrounds of the children present in the classroom environment, as having inadequate skills and language to learn.
The difference between home and school environment is that the learning present in the two accounts varies. Children coming from different home backgrounds make it difficult for the teachers to accommodate their linguistic and cultural variations, however the issues relating to variations of cultural and language attributes in the classroom are taken into account to encourage and enhance the literacy in children learning (O'Neill, 2011).
Discussion
Despite the fact that deliberations prolong on strategies and approaches, which are established there is further need for recognizing the importance of socio-cultural and linguistic backdrop in achieving the literacy rate in children, as the difference between home and school environment stands tall. The role of family, parents in particular plays an important role at home in developing the Childs literacy learning (O'Neill, 2009). In addition to the sequence, the school environment enhances the collective measures of the literacy learning in a child. The teachers play the most important part in the school to enhance the main body of the literacy in a child with the help of developing cultural attributes and influences of pedagogy and learning in the child.
The discussion will further continue to develop proper understanding of the Home environment v/s School environment through a proper comparative analysis using the two transcripts based on hypothetical situations of how they develop literacy learning in a child. The first hypothetical situation i.e. Transcript 1 will regard to the Home environment and its conducive behavior on the ...
