3-Day Literacy Cadre: Supporting Early Literacy Development in the Preschool Classroom
February 15, 2019
March 22, 2019
April 19, 2019
9-3 each day at the Berea RTC

This will be a series of three sessions that focus on early literacy strategies to support later reading achievement. Essential early literacy content including oral language development, alphabet knowledge, print awareness, and phonological awareness will be addressed. Participants will plan for implementation of best practice strategies in the preschool classroom, explore the use of ongoing assessment to plan intentional literacy learning opportunities, and design early literacy activities for family involvement. Early literacy materials will be provided to each participant each day. We are working out details, but will hopefully provide lunch each day.

Participants should plan to attend all three days. If you are unable to attend a specific day, please do your best to send someone in your place.
