Talking, singing, reading, writing, and playing!  Parents who do these five things (while sprinkling in early math & science skills) can set their children up for success in school.  This workshop will introduce attendees to the Every Child Ready to Read program, as well as the basic tenants of the Reimagining School Readiness program, and will discuss ways to encourage reading and school readiness during storytime.  Join us for this interactive workshop that will provide you with concrete examples for using ECRR in your library. 

Note:  This workshop includes a lot of crowdsourcing and brainstorming!  If you are a storytime practioner, please reflect on your storytime favorites (books, songs, rhymes, etc.) before the workshop and come prepared to share!
