The Early Catastrophe The problem: Early interventions

implemented during the 1960’s war on poverty washed out early and completely as children aged.

Page 21: Let’s Talk About Reading

The Early Catastrophe The intervention: Vocabulary could be

easily increased by educators by teaching them new words.

Page 22: Let’s Talk About Reading

The Early Catastrophe The results: There was fast vocabulary

growth by children in professional families. There was vocabulary growth in the lower SES population.

Page 23: Let’s Talk About Reading

The Early Catastrophe The plan: Rather than concede to the

inevitable forces of heredity, the group decided to undertake the process of research which would allow educators to understand the trajectories observed.

Page 24: Let’s Talk About Reading

The Early Catastrophe The findings: Before children can take

charge of their own experience and begin to spend time with peers in social groups outside the home, almost everything they learn comes from their families.

Page 25: Let’s Talk About Reading

The Early Catastrophe The similarities: Children grew more

like their parents in stature, activity levels, vocabulary resources, language, and interaction styles.
