School Readiness and Libraries
Libraries are in a unique position to support school readiness. Not only can we complement formal in-school academic learning, but we can help cultivate positive relationships between children and their caregivers. Through intentional planning we can create programs and resources that support the five primary areas of school readiness: cognition and general knowledge, physical well being and motor development, approaches to learning, language and literacy, and social-emotional development. By providing events, programs, and spaces infused with informal learning experiences and developmental opportunities we can help set children up for success. In addition, we are modeling for caregivers examples of engaging experiences they can recreate and expand upon outside of the library.
