Inhaltsangabe

Based on the National Early Literacy Panel Report (NELP) The purpose of this guide is to help teachers understand the research reported in Developing Early Literacy: Report of the National Early Literacy Panel (NELP, 2008). The guide describes ways teachers can use the research effectively for early childhood instruction, assessment, choosing curriculum, and helping parents better support their young children’s language and literacy learning. Based on the evidence reported by the National Early Literacy Panel (NELP), this guide will help teachers and program administrators make a significant difference in young children’s literacy learning. It is not enough to base instructional decisions on what we “think” or “feel” is effective. Armed with findings from this report, instructional decisions now can be based on what is known to improve early language and literacy learning. Programs that have a literacy-focused preschool curriculum are going to realize far better outcomes for children than those that do not have such a curriculum. This may mean investing in professional development because teachers who are trained to provide instruction based on research-proven information will get far better outcomes.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The National Center for Family Literacy (NCFL) is the worldwide leader in family literacy, an intergenerational approach to help families escape poverty through education. More than one million families have made positive educational and economic gains as a result of NCFL’s work, which includes training thousands of teachers and volunteers. Established in 1989 by its current President, Sharon Darling, NCFL envisions a world in which all families are provided opportunities to improve their lives and become strong contributors to society. We address our nation’s literacy challenges by engaging all family members in learning, beginning with the parent. NCFL is a national leader in education, with three decades of developing, implementing, and documenting innovative intergenerational strategies with research-based outcomes that have impacted millions of families. Our primary focus is to empower parents and children struggling with low literacy and language skills to become strong contributors to society. We develop, implement, and document innovative two-generation practices, networks, and learning tools. We lead and work with learners, administrators, teachers, librarians, policymakers, philanthropists, and advocates nationwide.
