Literacy Learning - The Paradigm Project and Teaching Beyond the Square
Save to library
We were joined by The Paradigm Project, Teaching Beyond the Square and Jennifer Caravajal.
Jennifer Caravajal presented strategies for infusing traditional academic skills into a Reggio-inspired classroom, sharing real examples from her own classroom and strategies she has developed in her work for Teaching Beyond the Square as a coach to schools in the New York City metro area. She shared her favorite children’s books, identify the unexpected ways the children develop literacy skills, and fine-tune storytime and read aloud methods.
