Shared Book Reading: Building Foundational Language and Literacy Skills

Discover simple, practical ways to build young children’s language and literacy through shared storybook reading. In this session, you'll learn how to make reading fun and interactive - by sparking conversations, building vocabulary, exploring letters and words, and responding to children’s ideas. You'll leave with easy strategies you can use every day to turn story time into powerful learning moments and support early literacy in playful, meaningful ways. --------- Facilitator Bio: The Canadian Children’s Literacy Foundation (CCLF) is committed to ensuring that all children in Canada, particularly those from underserved communities, become proficient readers and achieve their full potential. We accomplish this by leveraging existing systems and resources to provide critical foundational literacy support to children. A reminder as this is a free session, ECDA has a payment policy for this-- Failure to attend will result in a $20 Admin fee being applied to your account, and you must pay this prior to attending any future free sessions. This policy has been implemented due to many no-shows at events. We value our facilitators and their time, and we often have to cap session capacity so not showing up for an event impacts others who may have wanted to attend. Participants will be given the link to the video and are required to participate in one of two ways-- with a microphone/built in speaker or through the chat. In addition there will be a log tracking which members contribute and which do not, and those that do not contribute will not receive PD hours. We ask that you leave your camera on for the session.
