Early Literacy Strategies

 

We believe children need to be exposed to a wide range of skills that fit together to build a strong literacy foundation.   We also recognize that families and teachers have the never-ending challenge of limited time. Our strategies are organized by skill, and identified as 5, 10, or 15 Minute Moments.  Whatever time is available to help foster a young one’s learning will make a huge difference!

Foundations for Futures believes that ALL children need to be exposed to early literacy skills, setting up the proper foundation for success.

When young learners have solid Early Literacy Skills, they are off to a great start along the path of academic progression.


The years from birth through age 5 are a critical time for children’s development and learning. Early childhood educators understand that at home and in early childhood education settings, young children learn important skills that can provide them with the cornerstones needed for the development of later academic skills.
