Presented by Anna Foote, NEKLS, February 7, 2017 Set Up for Success Presented by Anna Foote, NEKLS, February 7, 2017

Three Components Set expectations that the adults in the room are the co- teachers of their children. Create a program structure that facilitates active participation. Redirect disruptive behaviors that happen during programs.

discuss Which is the most challenging component for you? Which do you handle best?

Set expectations that adults are the co-teachers of their children.

“The presenter is less of (an) entertainer and more of a facilitator or catalyst who encourages interaction between adults and children.” - Sue McCleaf Nespeca

“The parent is the key component in storytime…I agree that (programming) should be fun and entertaining. But the parents need to be in the room. And we need to be modeling to them.” - Sue McCleaf Nespeca

“Storytime is not a performance; it’s an interactive experience between you and the people in front of you on any particular day.” - Nell Colburn

“Establish clear expectations for both adult and child storytime behavior.” - Nell Colburn

Storytime Guidelines When you attend a library program, we want to provide an inviting experience for you and your family. Please keep these guidelines in mind to help us assure that everyone has fun! 1. Adult participation is important. Whether or not you are seated next to your child, please join the in the activities and show your child that it’s fun. You are the best person to help your child focus and learn.   2. Please refrain from conversations during the program. You are welcome to stay afterward and talk with others in attendance. 3. Please turn off all cell phones and other electronics before we start, and put away reading materials. 4. If your child cries loudly, loses control or otherwise distracts the group, please take him or her out of the room to regroup. Not every child is going to be in the mood for a story, and we understand that. If you are unable to calm your child today, please do try storytime again another day.

discuss What can you do to set expectations for your Early Literacy programs—for children and for adults?

structure Create a program structure that facilitates active participation—for children and for adults.

“Invite caregivers in with clear language and reasons.” - Dana from Jbrary

“Adults appreciate knowing that storytime materials and techniques are supported by research and boost early literacy skills. For many, this gives storytime more legitimacy and educational value.” - Nell Colburn

giving adults active roles “Build in time to connect” – before and after program Provide nametags for children and adults Highlight guidelines / point out sign Have children introduce themselves (or have adults intro children) Props, like puppets or flannelboards Distribute instruments/manipulatives to adults as well as children

giving adults active roles Use songs and rhymes that encourage/require adult participation Use books that encourage interaction Give Early Literacy asides Post flipcharts/posters or project images of rhymes and songs Distribute take home handouts

discuss What are some ways that you want structure (or restructure) your Early Literacy programs?

Redirect disruptive behaviors that happen during programs.

What are some redirection strategies you want to try? discuss What are some redirection strategies you want to try?

Use your favorite book to think of: a way to make it more interactive during reading time an extension activity you might use an Early Literacy aside you might say about the book an activity and tip you might put on a take home handout

“We are intentional about the ways that we support early literacy in storytimes. This intentionality includes articulating to adults the connection between what we do in storytimes and later reading. We articulate ways…caregivers can continue supporting early literacy even after storytime is over.” - Ghoting and Martin-Diaz, Storytimes for Everyone!
