Explore play-based literacy in this fun and engaging 1.5 hour workshop! Learn the science behind how children 0-5 years start developing oral language and phonological awareness, and then workshop ways to infuse your play-based learning centers with culturally-responsive elements, letter-sound awareness, vocabulary, and more.

Read to Succeed (R2S) is on a mission to help close the race-based opportunity gap through community powered literacy programming that supports children, families, and community partners. R2S currently partners with early childhood organizations, including Christine Avery Learning Center, YWCA, Buncombe Partnership for Children and Community Action Opportunities to provide literacy training, in-class student support, kindergarten-readiness materials and curricula, and family engagement events and activities.
