This instructional resource is designed to teach adults the best, evidence-based strategies for supporting early literacy development. After educators, librarians, and caregivers practice and hone their skills with these six units and six read alouds, it is the aim of the Center for English Learners at AIR that adults will be able to continue applying these strategies and way of engaging Kindergarteners and preschoolers with any read aloud. COLLTS empowers teachers to be more strategic and effective in developing children’s language and literacy skills during read-alouds and center time.
