But how do we capture those powerful moments and turn them into meaningful literacy opportunities for every child?

Participants will discover practical strategies for creating accessible, inclusive learning experiences that honor student voice and support diverse learners, including multilingual learners and children with disabilities.
By centering authentic child storytelling, educators will leave with creative ideas and ready-to-use tools that promote literacy, communication, engagement, and belonging in early childhood classrooms.Welcome to the intersection of foundational pedagogy and modern technology. This interactive webinar is designed specifically for early childhood educators who want to honor student voices while supercharging classroom engagement. Participants will discover how to pair the Language Experience Approach (LEA) with user-friendly Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools.
