Build Success From The Outset

As early childhood professionals, entrusted with the education of the whole child, it is important to regard the activities you present, including games, as opportunities to promote development in one or more domains—cognitive, social, emotional and physical. Mindful educators can find opportunities to build literacy skills throughout the preschool day. Classroom instruction can reflect current knowledge about early literacy teaching and learning.

These titles provide useful, research-based ideas that early childhood teachers can use in their classrooms, including:

• Early Literacy strategies
• Supporting English language learners
• Activities to build basic math and counting skills
