Join Dr. Susan Neuman—renowned early literacy scholar, NYU professor, and national policy leader—and Kelly Trygstad, brightwheel’s Head of Curriculum and Instruction, for a practical, research-based conversation on what early literacy really looks like in action.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:
Make the Science of Reading actionable: Apply key early literacy principles—like oral language, storybook reading, and vocabulary development—in age-appropriate, engaging ways for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers.
Balance explicit instruction with play: Blend structured learning with meaningful, play-based experiences.
Shift focus beyond the ABCs: Understand the difference between constrained skills (like letter recognition) and unconstrained skills (like vocabulary and comprehension)—and why the latter matter more for long-term success.
Bridge the gap with families: Use language families understand to translate best practices and strengthen school readiness.
