Early Literacy Programs for Children, Parents & Educators
Our early literacy programming meets the diverse needs of young children (ages birth to 5), parents and educators.
Our two signature programs work together: Educator Literacy Collaborative (formerly The Story Project) equips early educators in childcare and preschool settings with coaching and resources, while Birth to Five Literacy Journey (formerly Story School) supports parents in fostering their child’s learning through bilingual, evidence-based learning experiences in trusted community spaces.
FOR FAMILIES
Birth to Five Literacy Journey
(Formerly Story School) In Birth to Five Literacy Journey, children and parents learn together at the same time. The program fosters children’s emergent literacy and language skills while supporting parents to create powerful learning experiences at home.
FOR EDUCATORS
Educator Literacy Collaborative
(Formerly The Story Project) Educator Literacy Collaborative provides evidence-based early literacy support to educators and children at preschools, childcare centers and home-care providers.
