Abstract/Notes: We report on a study that was conducted in an urban city center, Bangalore, India. The participants included 1,052 students from Grades 1, 3 and 5, who came from different home language backgrounds and attended schools where the language of instruction was English. The students’ L2 English reading skills were measured using DIBELS and Easy CBM. The purpose of this study was to examine relations between basic skills, fluency, and comprehension. Using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), for students in Grade 1, we found reading skills mapped on to three latent factors: “letter sounds”, “letter names” and “fluency and comprehension”. For students in Grade 3, we found reading skills mapped on to two latent factors: “word and passage level fluency and comprehension” and “sentence and retell level fluency and comprehension”. For students in Grade 5, we found reading skills mapped on to two latent factors: “fluency” and “comprehension”. Implications for reading assessment and instruction practices within the Indian context will be discussed.

Abstract/Notes: The objective of this study is to discuss some methods that can be helpful for the development of Montessori as well as the Kindergarten Approach to Education. Our research work is based on an unstructured questionnaire and observation method. To imply adequate qualitative and quantitative data, we searched the goals and objectives of Kindergarten and Montessori education policy from local concerned institutions of West Bengal in India. Our field study was conducted on some villages of Midnapore and South 24 Parganas District of Bengal. Early childhood is a stage that requires an overall holistic development model. These two approaches deal with that, but there are some methods related to language and communication that can easily develop the quality of the approaches above. It is shown with projected lesson plans and timetable management. This study explores and discusses such methods and points out how these methods can bring changes to those approaches. This paper also inputs the Indian state education policy about it.
