This year’s round of Every Child Ready to Read (ECRR) workshops will dive specifically into storytimes and implementing the 5 Practices: Play, Talk, Read, Sing, Write. If you attended the workshops with Sue McCleaf Nespeca in 2016, please note that these are not the same. We wanted to meet requests for a more hands-on, storytime focused workshop, so please consider registering. If you’ve never attended ECRR training, that’s okay, too. We’ll recap quickly in the morning before diving into ECRR storytimes. Some locations are filling up fast, so register today:
