This session explores how playful experiences with sounds help build young children’s phonological awareness and lay a foundation for later reading and writing. Participants will explore developmentally appropriate strategies that can be easily incorporated into everyday routines to make language learning fun, engaging, and impactful.

Learning Outcomes

• Gain an understanding of phonological awareness.
• Determine the development of phonological awareness in children aged three to five-and-a-half years.
• Identify practices to support the development of children’s phonological awareness.
