Description
Summary:Studies have proved that interactive communication in reading activity between children with DS and their parents is effective in their literacy development. This communication is defined as extratextual communication. Related to these findings, the qualitative research has been conducted in order to describe the characteristic of extratextual interaction done by mothers and their children with DS while doing shared book reading activity. The study was involving two mothers and their children consist of male and female with DS at the age between 7,5 to 8,5 years old in Surabaya. It was conducted in non-participant observation by using tape recording. The recorded data were analyzed by using thirteen categories of parents' extratextual interactions and ten of children's extratextual interactions proposed by Natsiopoulou and Melissa-Halikiopoulou (2008). The result showed that most of the extratextual interactions were done by mothers. Children with DS employed only a very limited number of extratextual interactions. Clarifying category became the most extratextual interaction done by mother while repetition category became the most extratextual interaction done by Children. Both mothers and their children with DS employed low-level abstraction of extratextual interactions. Children with DS employed low-level of abstraction as the result of difficulty related to expressive language and lack of interest toward the story, while mother employed low-level abstraction to accommodate their children with DS.
