My Project

The children in my classroom have started to love read aloud time. During this time, we use a variety of strategies to engage children in the literacy process.

Children establish strong communication, confidence in expressive skills, and early literacy skills when engaged in language and literacy development!

In our classroom, books and felt stories are introduced during read aloud. Next, materials are placed into an area in the classroom for children to explore independently. Having a number of these literacy opportunities available allows the children and teachers to provide more interest based materials in their environment!
