Exploring the Effects of Teachers' Practices in the Early Childhood Literacy Classroom Environment on Children's Acquisition of Literacy Skills

The primary focus of this study is to explore the relationship between the early childhood literacy classroom environment and teachers' practices to promote an understanding of their influence on Arabic-speaking children's acquisition of literacy skills. This study utilizes a quantitative methodological approach, whereby null and alternative hypotheses were formulated to examine the association between Arabic-speaking children's acquisition of literacy skills and the early childhood literacy classroom environment. Data analysis was conducted using a statistical technique known as structural equation modeling. The results of this study indicate that the literacy classroom environment, teachers' practices, and Arabic-speaking children's acquisition of literacy skills affect each other and have an evidence-based interrelationship. Based on this relationship, the results and recommendations of this study may be considered inspirational ideas for teachers, researchers, and decision-makers working in early childhood who seek to make positive educational changes in this field.
