Get It Right from the Start: Laying the Foundation for K-2 Success
Free e-book: Build stronger foundations with evidence-informed literacy and numeracy strategies
Literacy and numeracy are often approached as separate priorities. Yet research shows that their development is closely connected—and that strengthening both during the early years can help establish the foundations students need for future learning.
This free research e-book gives district, school system and education leaders evidence-informed insights to help shape K–2 priorities, teaching practices and investment.
Download the e-book to explore what neuroscience, longitudinal studies and classroom research reveal about building strong foundations in literacy and numeracy.
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
-
Build a stronger case for early investment: Use research to support K–2 literacy and numeracy priorities and inform strategic decisions about early learning.
-
Understand how literacy and numeracy development connect: Explore the cognitive skills that contribute to both areas and what these connections can mean for instruction.
-
Align research with regional priorities: Consider how evidence-informed approaches can support evolving state, provincial and local literacy and numeracy priorities.
-
Strengthen early teaching and learning: Discover how high-quality instruction can lay the foundation for long-term academic progress.
-
Support greater consistency: Identify opportunities to build a more connected approach to literacy and numeracy across classrooms, schools and grade levels.
