In partnership with Good Shepherd Center, MPPL welcomes early childhood education specialist, Sheila Kerwin, for a workshop on engaging structured large-group time in the early childhood classroom.
This program is intended for early childhood educators but is open to anyone who engages with young children.
The literacy journey is one that unfolds over many years — moving from learning to read to reading to learn — with many twists and turns along the way. In this presentation, participants explore developmental milestones in literacy and discuss practical ways to enhance the early childhood classroom environment, expand activities, and enrich interactions, all with the goal of making literacy a natural part of everyday classroom life.
This professional development opportunity is offered in partnership with Good Shepherd Center and will be presented by early childhood educator, consultant, and voice actor, Sheila Kerwin, of Piggyback Songs for Pint-Sized Persons: https://www.youtube.com/@sheilakerwin9415.
