Question

which of the following best describes early literacy for infants?

○ talking about daily routines

○ asking children to help write lists

○ building an understanding of the function of language

○ acting out stories with stuffed animals

Explanation:

Early literacy for infants focuses on foundational language understanding. "Building an understanding of the function of language" aligns with infant literacy development (e.g., recognizing language’s role in communication). Other options: talking about routines is more about language use in context but not core literacy, asking to write lists is beyond infants’ ability, and acting out stories is more for older children (preschool/beyond) than infants.

Answer:

Building an understanding of the function of language
