Research Abstract |
Overall, this experimental research has yielded positive results showing that children in this study responded favorably to literacy instruction. Writing and reading practices centering on international exchanges can be said to have motivated the children to learn how to read and write. Several methods proved to be entertaining to children. They especially like creating original posters introducing their school and towns. Activities that inspire their creativity and originality turned out to have motivated the children the most.
