This study examines the perceptions of kindergarten (KG) teachers
in Jordan about the importance of using a reading pictures
strategy and the barriers to doing so. A descriptive design was
employed and 192 teachers were surveyed to rank their
perceptions. The results showed that teachers perceived a
moderate level of importance about using reading pictures and
almost a quarter indicated a low level of importance. There was
no significant effect of specialisation, while there was a significant
effect of qualification and years of experience. The results also
revealed that using a reading pictures strategy is currently
constrained by different factors including low parental
involvement and lack of administration interest. A number of
recommendations are presented for enhancing teachers’
perceptions regarding a reading pictures strategy and combating
constraints.
