Season 4, Episode 45 - Curiosity and Connection: A Literacy Conversation with NDE
To kick off the Season 4 topic of literacy, Laura sits down with team members from the Nebraska Department of Education to explore how to give children the best possible start on their literacy journey. They dive into personal stories from toddler classrooms, the power of shared reading experiences, and how read-alouds and storytelling shape (and are shaped by) dramatic play. You’ll also hear about the importance of sequencing in stories, ways to foster curiosity and connection, and tips for making reading and writing materials more accessible to young learners.
