Developmental relationship of preliteracy skills and a short term memory
Králová, Michaela ; Seidlová Málková, Gabriela (advisor) ; Kučerová, Olga (referee)
The topic of the bachelor thesis is an exploration of relationships of key pre-literacy skills (phonemic awareness, knowledge of letters, rapid automatized naming) and a short-term verbal memory.

The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part defines the assumptions of the development of reading skills and those that we can consider as the most important in the development of reading skills based on research. The emphasis is placed on short-term verbal memory in the development of reading skills. How important short-term verbal memory is in the development of reading skills is a question of research. The question arising from these research is whether the effect of short-term verbal memory on reading is reducible on the quality of phonological processing or whether short-term verbal memory has a separable effect on the initial acquisition of reading. The empirical part of the thesis describes research carried out in two state kindergartens in the Capital City of Prague. A total of 19 children in the last year of kindergarten were given tests mapping pre-literacy skills (phonemic awareness,...

Kreuzigerová, Simona ; Klenková, Jiřina (advisor) ; Horynová, Jana (referee)
The diploma thesis is elaborated on a special pedagogical topic. The topic of the thesis is Diagnosis of phonemic awareness in preschool children, while the subject of the diploma thesis is the assessment of the level of phonemic awareness, specifically the ability to isolate sounds. The work is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part contains four chapters dealing with the phonetic-phonological level, phonemic awareness, phonetic-phonological level in preschool children and the diagnosis of phonemic awareness. The last, fifth chapter is the practical part of the thesis. The aim of the research is to find out the ability to isolate the first and last vowel of words in preschool children and at the same time to find out whether there is a difference between children attending kindergarten and preparatory class of primary school. For a selected research sample of children attending a regular kindergarten and a preparatory class in a regular primary school, the Voice Isolation Test was performed using a standardized MABEL test battery, so the testing method was used. The research survey showed that about a third of preschool children are able to isolate sounds at the beginning of the school year, but there is a significant difference between kindergarten and preparatory class...
