摘要：In recent decades there has been considerable research focusing on the relationship between oral and handwritten language. Currently, there is agreement that oral language skills are involved in access to written language. However, the relationship between oral language and written language acquisition at the early stages of this learning process has yet to be determined clearly. The purpose of this study is twofold: Firstly, analyze the relationship between the various components of oral language and the learning of writing in the early ages, and secondly, gain knowledge about how these relationships manifest in the evolutionary development of students. Also, how these relationships develop according to the gender of the students, is addressed. A correlational design was employed that allows for the elucidation of relationships between the variables examined, as well as for increased awareness of the factors that explain the learning of our handwriting system. The study involved 166 students, from different public and subsidized schools, aged between 4 to 6 years. Results show that various components of oral language relate to the process of learning handwriting at a development model, while also noting gender differences during the learning process of handwriting system at an early age.
