dc.description.abstract | Reading is a key component of literacy that plays an important role in knowledge access. It
helps children's minds grow, and stimulates their comprehension of reading content, enabling
them to function and interact effectively in society. Although, reading is prioritised as an
indispensable aspect of literacy, reading comprehension remains a global challenge (Ligembe,
2014). Most South African learners in the Foundation Phase perform poorly in literacy
particularly in reading and writing and are reading far below appropriate expected age levels
according to the reports on systematic evaluations by the Department of Education (DoE), and
other international research organisations on learners reading skills (Hugo, Le Roux, Muller &
Nel, 2005). | en_US |
