Early Learning Skills for Maximum Success: Ande Ford and Carolynne Masson

from School Shorts

Children starting school without the skills needed for learning, are more likely to start on the back foot when it comes to the reading, writing and other skills that are assessed in the curriculum. Andrea Ford and Carolynne Masson work with families and communities to strengthen all those foundation skills through Ready 4 Learning. With backgrounds in teaching and school leadership, they discuss their thoughts on learning through play and structured literacy expertise. Ande and Carlolynne have lots of tips for parents about the best ways to develop language, movement and emotional wellbeing. We also discuss the impact of Covid - did it cause or accelerate certain challenges? or were those challenges already apparent in early education? Hosted on Acast.
