Introduction
The subject Learning of languages and reading comprehension 4 aims to promote the teaching-learning processes that favor the achievement of the necessary teaching competencies in relation to the dimensions that take place in the nursery school classroom. Especially in relation to reading and writing, as well as the oral competence of the Master of EI. In this subject, all the contents of the 1, 2 and 3 are collected. Without this it is not feasible to carry out this subject. We believe that for the future teacher is very necessary to achieve these competencies in order to focus their educational work. To this end, the subject is structured in four blocks of theoretical application that are accompanied, each of them, of a group practice that will be developed in the classroom, in order to apply the theoretical contents. It is therefore a subject that complements the learning achieved in reading and writing and brings to the student a global and interdisciplinary approach to teaching reading and writing in children's education.
