This study examined the effect of rich literacy environment on students' motivation. It was conducted in a public school in Beirut. One kindergarten II class, 24 students, and 4 teachers participated in that study. Data was collected through classroom observations, self-report for the teacher, and interview with the teachers and students. Students learn from their surrounding and by what is all around them and a Literacy rich classroom inspires and teaches. A stimulating environment is therefore one of the key elements in the successful development of literacy- talking & listening, reading and writing. A rich- literacy environment enhances students' motivation. Although the findings are significant, more research should be conducted in Lebanon to get more accurate results UR - http://search.shamaa.org/FullRecord?ID=65984 ER -
