Windham Child Care Association

This early literacy training is open to providers who have previously completed a two-part Never Too Early/Early Birds and Bookworms series; priority is given to participants from prior program years. It offers an opportunity to deepen knowledge of early literacy gained from previous trainings as well as from experience. In 2009-10, the Advanced NTE training will focus on socio-emotional development: building on the NTE foundation, providers will learn how to use children’s literature to nurture empathy, compassion, cooperative play, and effective communication – emotional literacy – as they nurture early literacy. Participants will receive a “Peaceable Stories” resource manual (developed by the Maine Humanities Council) and gift books for their program. Presented by Laura Lawson Tucker.
