Course 1: Early Language and Literacy Development in Monolinguals

This is the first course in a five-part series intended to inform and support early learning providers and educators in their understanding of language development in 0-5 year olds with the end goal of facilitating high quality education and academic success. In this course, early learning providers and educators will learn the link between early oral language skills to later literacy performance. Here we offer information regarding potential red flags so that early learning providers and educators can refer children who may be at risk for language and learning disorders for screening and assessment. This course is a pre-requisite for the remaining courses in this series.

Course Developers: Alisa Baron, PhD, CCC-SLP, Vanessa Harwood, PhD, CCC-SLP
