“…In some studies, it was found that reading aloud is effective for learning target words (24.32%). This learning of target words was detected in some studies through the administration of questionnaires to educators and teachers who confirm that they have heard children using specified words more often than usual, and in the context of different activities (Blamey, Beauchat & Sweetman, 2012;Holmes & Thompson, 2014;Makumbila & Rowland, 2016).…”

Reading aloud appears to be an important lever for improving language acquisition and development in early childhood, and later in life it strengthens many sub-dimensions of language. However, the availability of numerous variations on reading training, shaped by different methodologies and different lengths of exposure make it difficult to determine the best approaches to follow. The aim of this review is to identify the available literature contributions that examine the association between mediated reading training, first language development and the acquisition of new vocabulary, including other components that could be improved by these interventions, such as cognitive function, emergent literacy and adult-child verbal interactions. The purpose is to compare research highlighting their fundamental characteristics, tools, duration and methodologies used in order to point out the effects that the practice of reading aloud produces on the acquisition and the enhancement of language, particularly in the age of language development. The analysis of the 51 articles included aims to identify the most effective reading strategies in terms of practices, timing and methods, able to produce the most significant gains in the language area.

“…The teacher determines the success of the vocabulary learning process through the instruction process. Teachers should use reading innovation to plan, implement, and reflect on vocabulary instruction (Blamey et al, 2012). In teaching and learning English is reflected through pedagogical practices (Lau & Rao, 2013).…”

This research aimed to discover the impact of explicit instruction on teaching vocabulary to students with vocabulary difficulties. This explicit instruction involves directly teaching vocabulary words, providing detailed definitions, and practicing using these words in the context of sentences. The participants were 95 fourth-grade students. Participants who scored under 40 on the vocabulary test were randomly assigned to the experimental or control classes. The experimental group receives explicit instruction, while the control group receives conventional teaching from a teacher in a whole group setting. The experiment was conducted twice a week during 20 learning sessions. A teacher taught The reference group the same vocabulary as the whole group. Based on the data analysis using a mixed-model (multi-level) Time Condition analysis, the results remarked the moderate effect of the intervention on students' vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension. Besides, the experiment group could write better sentences using the vocabulary taught than the control group. Research implication was also discussed
