wk6 blog assignment



I explored the care & education link and found that they offer a ZERO TO THREE Web exclusive! an interactive learning tool designed to help parents and caregivers encourage their young children's early learning. You choose an age rage  from http://www.zerotothree.org/early-care-education/school-readiness-interactive-birth-to-3/ and it gives you tips and suggestions for good practices at home and school.



I think this area specifically is dedicated to equity and excellence for early childhood children because it is a tool that educators and parents can use in order to support children. They have skill areas to click on which include language and literacy, thinking skills, self control, self confidence. this allows families to target areas which they may need more information about or see a weakness that needs support.

  1. Wow...Zero to Three website sounds awesome! I am going to have to check this site out. This sounds like a good link for parents to go on and get good information also. This could be one of those sites that educators have on hand to give parents at conferences or even in newsletters. I hope that it is user-friendly.

I feel as though it may be something that can easily be utilized by combing play and development for the benefit of the child.

  3. Lauren,

    This is a good tool to invest in and have as an resource. I believe if more parents took advantage of this, we would have more children prepared early to become successful. The skills they focus on are very important in all area's of life, so for young children to begin developing at a young age, is perfect. Thank you for sharing int information.
