Medřická, Tereza ; Kucharská, Anna (advisor) ; Špačková, Klára (referee) ; Bytešníková, Ilona (referee)
In the context of both projects Enhancing literacy development in European languages, work package 2 and The early literacy development and its variability in children at risk of specific learning disabilities, we monitored child development of literacy in preschool age and during the first years of school attendance in a four-stage process. The research group (n = 76) compound of typically developing children (BV = 37), children with the family risk of dyslexia (RR = 22) and children with specific language impairment (NVŘ = 17). We evaluated development of phonemic/phonological, lexical/semantic and morphological/syntactic skills, preliteracy skills and early literacy skills. The last fifth test stage included the assessment of literacy development in 3rd graders. First, a group of children with literacy deficits (n = 9) was identified via the latent profile analysis method. Subsequently, four predictive models of literacy deficits for each stage were created by means of lasso or L-1 penalized regression method. Predictive models follows the trend that until literacy skills are fully automatized (preschool age and the 1st grade), phonemic and phonological skills predominate, but later - after the formal learning to read and write proceeds - early literacy skills are becoming more and more...

This diploma thesis is especially pedagogical oriented, it is focused on matters of speech therapy. In theoretical part, there are described issues of intact speech development and language skills of children, and also early literacy and malfunction of communication skills of pre-school children. This work is comparing two types of pre-school education. One of them is classic pre-school, the second one is alternative Montessori pre-school. Empirical part was realized with MABEL test battery. MABEL is diagnostic battery for evaluation of early literacy and skills for development of early literacy. There were used tests of elision and isolation of phones, fast naming of colours and pictures, writing of easy words and phones composing. Research survey was placed in two pre-schools. Respondents were early aged children, who attend these schools. The main objective of this work was to find and compare early literacy of pre-school children. The results were compared to standards from diagnostic battery and they showed, that Montessori respondents got slightly higher score in comparison to children of classic pre-school. However, results are little bit disorted, because of low number of total respondents.
