Product Overview

Reading Right From the Start

Our Parent Guides help parents learn how to partner with teachers for a successful school year and reassure parents that their children are well-taken care of and safe.

From math and literacy development to inside looks into The Creative Curriculum® classroom, our guides show parents simple ways to build skills and encourage healthy development and learning. Each guide is sold in sets of 10 for easy distribution to every parent in the class.

A child’s earliest experiences with words and conversations set the stage for future competency in language and literacy. Reading Right From the Start shows families how talking, singing, and reading with their children help them build vocabulary, learn about conversations, and discover meaning from print. This easy-to-follow booklet includes recommended reading lists for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers.

Includes: each copy is 62 pages, paperback; sold in sets of 10 copies
