New Hampshire Foundations of Reading Practice Test

Which of the following activities can help build literacy in daily routines?

1. Watching TV shows together

2. Morning meetings with written messages

3. Outdoor physical activities

4. Providing snacks during class

The correct answer is: Morning meetings with written messages

Building literacy in daily routines can be effectively achieved through activities that involve reading and writing, and morning meetings with written messages exemplify this. This activity creates an environment where students are engaged with written text, as they can read messages displayed during the meeting. It encourages the recognition of letters and words, promotes comprehension, and provides opportunities for interaction where students might respond to these messages—either orally or through writing. In contrast, while watching TV shows together may support listening skills and comprehension, it does not actively engage participants in reading or writing. Outdoor physical activities primarily focus on physical development and do not directly contribute to literacy skills, and providing snacks during class does not relate to reading and writing practice either. Therefore, morning meetings with written messages stands out as a clear avenue for enhancing literacy through consistent interaction with text in a structured, supportive environment.
