First Graders' Conceptions of Literacy: A Matter of Schooling.
Rasinski, Timothy V.; DeFord, Diane E.
Theory into Practice, v27 n1 p53-61 Win 1988

Their skill levels were then compared, and suggestions were made for teachers to help children see reading and writing as holistic skills, beyond their functional necessity. (JL)
