Overwhelmed...how many times have we heard this response? We hear it from students, teacher, and parents; we are all feeling the 2020 blues. But what if we take a step back, so we can harness that joy of teaching once again. Let's get to the root of what is needed for our primary learners. During this presentation I will share three simple lessons you can do now with your community to encourage early literacy that's sustainable, creative and engaging.

Mini-Lesson 1: Teaching parents how to read to, with and for their children.
Mini-Lesson 2: Using common household items to help teach basic math/reading concepts.
Mini-Lesson 3: Vowel Town breaking down the mystery of vowel sounds through funny stories, songs and play.
