[RFHF] Early Literacy in the Spotlight

[Rick Samuelson]

Hi gang,

My co-worker (Martín) clued me in to a big article on Early Literacy that graced the cover of the NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/22/us/language-gap-study-bolsters-a-push-for-pre-k.html

I highly suggest you take a look at the National Governors Association report referenced in the article: http://www.nga.org/files/live/sites/NGA/files/pdf/2013/1310NGAEarlyLiteracyReportWeb.pdf

Interesting stuff.

Take care,

Know all that there is to be knowed.
But they none of them know one half as much
As intelligent Mr Toad!"
