This contribution deals with the study of the available vocabulary of students attending first year of Primary School (6-7 years old) in Valencia. The vocabulary repertoires studied here come from some oral researches done to 55 students and aim at the centre of interest "Animals". The purpose of this contribution has two poles: on the one hand, it tries to address the configuration of the analysed vocabulary availability inventories, applying another instrument of analysis, DispoGrafo, which is able to show in greater detail some essential aspects, such as the type of associations activated by children in the selected centre of interest, the vocabulary units incorporated and the formation of semantic categories and subcategories. And, on the other hand, it tries to show a new reality in the range of vocabulary availability which allows to investigate on methodological questions and on analysis of results in oral repertoires, as well as the study of significant features in the configuration of the available vocabulary at an early age.
