Abstract
This article presents the findings of a scoping review of 26 empirical studies that examined early literacy in Reggio Emilia and Montessori classrooms. A five-stage framework for conducting scoping reviews was used and led to the review of the selected studies. In addition, a thematic content analysis was conducted resulting in four main themes associated with the studies: 1. avenues for literacy learning, 2. home-school connection, 3. early literacy advantages, and 4. enriched literacy environments. The study contexts, research methods, and other relevant study characteristics are also reviewed and discussed. The results shed light on the research that has been conducted on early literacy in Reggio and Montessori environments. In addition, patterns across the two contexts are discussed and suggestions about future research are offered.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
