Fostering Literacy Development in Children Birth to Three

Literacy development begins the first day of a child’s life. Exposure to books and high-quality shared reading time with a caregiver improves literacy language outcomes for children who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. This session will review the five components of literacy development, linking each component to early listening milestones. Participants will learn strategies to implement literacy and listening intervention simultaneously in a routine-based and family-centered model.

  • Name and describe the five components of literacy development
  • Identify two new routines to incorporate literacy intervention
  • List three ways literacy and listening intervention can be implemented simultaneously
