[RFHF] Idea for early literacy messages to parents during storytime

Mon Dec 14 10:05:44 PST 2015

Hi everyone,
I wanted to add that this anonymous Minnesota librarian was most likely Anna Haase Krueger, Project Manager on Once Upon a Reader (http://onceuponareader.org/) and blogger at Future Librarian Superhero (http://www.futurelibrariansuperhero.com/). I wanted to make sure to share her name since she is really amazing.

Additionally, if you're in search for some fresh early literacy tips, Storytime Underground recently started a series called "Early Literacy Fast Facts": http://storytimeunderground.org/?s=fast+facts The facts are accompanied by a ready-to-be-printed-or-shared-on-social-media image!

Thanks,
Bryce

Hi Ruth:

I understand. It?s not worthy to be stressed. I?ll try to get that information for you by the end of the day. In any case, we?ll send the powerpoint presentation to CSD and I?ll write a report with the experience and the election of the awards.
Sorry that I don?t have that info with me.
Best,

Mart?n

Hi Martin, I am going to be attending this event remotely after all.  I was planning to drive up in person, but with the heavy rain, I am not going to put myself through that stress.  Could you please send me the info for attending remotely?
Many thanks,

Ruth Rose

Hi Everyone:

Three more days for the event. Please, if you have copies of the titles to be considered for the awards, bring them with you. It?s going to be easier for the discussion groups to have the copies (as many as you can bring).
Thank you again and I see you on Saturday.

The following email is a great suggestion that was shared on the ALA's Association for Library Services to Children yesterday and I thought many of you would like it too!

Hello one and all, Please excuse cross postings.

I wanted to pass on a tip I got from a librarian in Minnesota when I was presenting workshops there. For those of you who include early literacy asides/parent tips in your storytimes, you might like her approach:  She came up with a phrase which makes the tip quite conversational and not condescending in feel. She says, "When we [activity or practice]. . . , we . . .[connection to literacy] "

So for example, "When we point out rhyming words, then we are helping our children hear the smaller sounds in words which will help them later sound out words." Or, "When we talk about the different meanings of one word, we help develop their vocabulary which increasing their understanding or comprehension." Or "When we run a finger under the words in the title of a book, we draw the children's attention to the print which will help the focus on the text when they are learning to read." Hope this may be of help as we share early literacy information with the adults.

I know we are always looking for ways to make it easier to share early literacy information with parents and caregivers, so I thought I would pass this along.
