About this event
Early Literacy for Providers and Families teaches strategies to support young children’s language and literacy skills to increase their school readiness in home and childcare environments. This unique class is a great opportunity for families and providers to strengthen partnerships and support the children in their care, but may be taken individually. Participants will learn to apply evidence-based strategies in individualized ways.
A $100 stipend is available for all providers and family members from South Dakota who complete the class, and providers who attend with a family member of a child they support will receive an additional $25. Child care providers and centers may request promotional flyers for families by contacting Darbi Hunt at dhunt@bhssc.org.
This hybrid class includes a self-paced online introduction to be completed prior to the two live online sessions on Thursdays, April 25 and May 2, from 6-8pmMT/7-9pmCT. Completion of all three is required for the stipend and a certificate for 6 CEUs. Additional information and links will be emailed to each registrant prior to the live online class.
Intended for anyone supporting children 5 or under - unregistered providers, babysitters, and grandparents are all welcome!
South Dakota's Statewide Family Engagement Center's (SFEC) goal is to improve student development and achievement by supporting families and communities.
