Literacy for Littles: Incorporating Language-Rich Shared Reading Routines into Early Intervention Sessions

This session will focus on strategies for effective caregiver coaching to incorporate early emerging literacy outcomes into daily routines to maximize engagement, promote social relationships with caregivers, and facilitate language development within a routines-based model of early intervention. Presenters will share practical strategies and expectations for the birth to three population by aligning LSL principles with dialogic reading strategies for routines-based visits.

  • Participants will summarize benefits of shared reading experiences in the development of language and emergent literacy skills in very young children.
  • Participants will identify the social-emotional, language, and emergent literacy outcomes for children in the first few years of life and methods that promote the development of these skills during shared reading with caregivers.
  • Participants will develop strategies to encourage caregivers to incorporate language-rich reading experiences into their daily routines using LSL and dialogic reading frameworks.
