Reimagining School Readiness Training
Do you wonder what research really says about how to support school readiness?
The
Reimagining
School Readiness Toolkit is a suite of research-backed activities and these upcoming trainings will introduce library staff to help families prepare children ages 0 to 8 for success in school and in life.
We are offering this 2-part program twice, once in April and once in May.

*By registering for the program, you are confirming that you can attend Part 1 and Part 2.
Through an interactive presentation with hands-on activities, this training will introduce library staff to the research, practical implications, and resources offered
in the toolkit, which is available in its entirety for free online.
Participants will understand key findings from current cognitive and developmental psychology research, reflect on the implications of those findings for their daily
work, and gain practical ready-to-implement ideas for activities, as well as resources for staff trainings and for parents/caregivers.
You will benefit from this workshop if you work with children ages 0 to 8 and their families, and would like to learn more about how to offer research-backed programming
in your library!
This training is offered free of charge through a generous grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services as a part of a broader effort to disseminate the
Reimagining School Readiness Toolkit nationally. The toolkit was developed by the Bay Area Discovery Museum in collaboration with the California State Library and the Pacific Library Partnership.
