This is an online Training.  

Engaging in language and literature activities throughout the day provides young children with a strong grounding and necessary base for later academic learning.  This training will assist participants in understanding how young children develop emergent language and literacy skills in age-appropriate music and movement and dramatic play activities that promote development as well as a love for reading and books. Knowledge of needed skills as well as how to incorporate these activities across the curriculum on a daily basis will be discussed.  Participants will have the opportunity to plan and participate in activities designed to promote skills in a play-based curriculum that meet children’s needs in these areas. Use of quality children’s literature will be integrated throughout the training.
