What Matters in Early Literacy Instruction, now? Overview

In our last workshop session, we discussed our learnings about what is most important to prioritize in early literacy instruction – particularly now, when children may have some assumed learning loss and may have experienced trauma in our current landscape. We focused on principles for guiding the planning and implementation of early literacy instruction – so that we are having the highest impact possible on children’s social-emotional and literacy learning.

Below are the resources we shared during this session:
