Abstract EN

The current study aims at investigating the effect of training program for kindergarten teachers to help family promote their children's early literacy development.

The study sample consisted of 76 children divided into two groups: the experimental group with 40 children taught by teachers who attended a training program to help family develop their children's early literacy, and the control group with 36 children taught by teachers who did not attend a training program.

Results revealed statistical significant difference in early literacy test between the two groups in favour of the experimental group.

The results also indicated that there was significant difference on the early reading domain attributed to gender in favour of females, while there was no significant difference on the early writing domain attributed to gender.

Moreover, the results revealed no statistical significant difference attributed to the interaction between gender and group for both domains: early reading and early writing.

The study concluded by a number of suggestions and recommendations for promoting the relationship between teachers and family to develop children's early literacy.
