With speech, children can influence
the behavior of others, express
their feelings, and convey
information. A big part of motivating
them to take on the extra work
of reading and writing must be letting
them see how the permanence
and portability of writing can widen
the scope of that influencing, expressing,
and informing. Young
children who can say “No! Don’t!”
experience the power of spoken
words to influence what others do
or don’t do—but only when the
speakers are present. Being able to
write No extends the exercise of
that power to situations in which
they are not present, as morning
kindergartners Eric, Jeff, Zack, and
Ben realized when they wrote
NOStPN (No stepping) to keep afternoon
kindergartners from disturbing
a large dinosaur puzzle they had
assembled on the classroom floor
(McGee & Richgels 2000, 233–34).
