Growing Readers & Early Literacy
Join the Maud Marks Library on Tuesdays @ 11:15AM for some Explorer Time!
Preschool Explorer Time is sensory play that encourages learning through exploration, curiosity, problem solving and creativity.
This 30 minute session will be every Tuesdays for ages 3-5 as children will get a chance to explore with fun activities that are good for the development of their language and motor skills!
See you all there!
Join us every Tuesday at 10:30 am for stories, songs, fingerplays and crafts using best practices of the Every Child Ready to Read program. You and your children will have fun while honing skills necessary to be ready to read!
Promotes early literacy skills. The program features reading, singing, talking, writing and playing. We will help give you the resources you need to expand your child’s skills, preparing them to read. Recommended for children ages 2-5 years, it features age appropriate stories, songs, and fingerplays. Story time is an excellent way to bond with your child, boost their vocabulary, and hopefully raise a lifelong reader. Studies have shown that regularly reading to your child can increase their attention span, boost their emotional intelligence, and flex their imagination.
Join us every Wednesday at 10:30 am for songs, stories and fingerplays designed to develop your child's early literacy skills. Plus there is plenty of time for the children to play and for caregivers to socialize. Fun for toddlers and their caregivers!
