A print-rich classroom displays:
ASigns, charts and notices
BOnly the textbook
CMarks of all pupils
DOnly spelling lists
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Signs, charts and notices
1. Beginning literacy is helped by a print-rich environment.
2. The classroom must display signs, charts and notices that organise its work.
3. These help children recognise written symbols as meaningful.
4. A single textbook, mark lists and spelling lists do not do this.
**Why not the others:** A single textbook, marks of all pupils and spelling lists do not create an environment of meaningful print.
