The PfL Early Childhood Component links early literacy and language activities with social and emotional development. It features teacher-friendly instructional strategies and game-like learning activities. The Parent Partnerships Component is fully compatible with the early childhood component. It can be intergrated with the Early Childhood Component or can be implemented in a stand alone Parent Education program.
PfL helps develop the language, cognitive, and early reading skills targeted by the national Early Reading First program as necessary for young children’s successful entry into kindergarten.

This is a great website!!!!

The second website that I think is great is: http://www.carolinaparent.com/
If parents don’t pick up a magazine, they can visit this website, and it offers so much. The daycare where I work has a computer set up with this website up every day. There are so many free activities, and so much information listed that can benefit parents.
I really enjoyed going to the website on the Early Childhood Component. It gave a lot of great information and I really enjoyed reading all of the strategies that they offer. I especially liked the interactive book reading and actually all of the strategies they give about reading to young children. I believe that reading with young children is one of the most important things we can do as parents and educators. Books open up a world of knowledge and vocabulary to children and the more they are read to in the early years the greater their love of reading will be and the more prepared they will be for learning. Thanks for this great website.
ReplyDeleteI checked out the link to Carolina Parent because I am also in NC! I am just outside Jacksonville because my husband works at Camp Lejuene. I thought that website is super helpful to parents wanting to expose their children to the world around them, and it also provides so many activities to stay active in the community. I wish we had something like that closer to me....because Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill is a little too far to travel daily...
ReplyDeleteEarlene, I have lived in Virginia and Missouri and worked in day cares there...North Carolina is just special in it's own right...there are so many different rules and routines here that I had to pick up on fast, that I had never done before!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great website, I researched the website and the research tab led me to the MindNurture website where I watched the Abecedarian project video. It is so moving to see the effects of early childhood education on actual living subjects. These children were followed from birth until adulthood and are a testimony and inspiration to us all in the early childhood education to continue to learn and do what we are doing.
