🗣️✨ Exciting things are happening at Early Learning Indiana! We've partnered with LENA to boost early language development through the innovative LENA Grow program. LENA Grow uses cutting-edge “talk pedometers” to measure verbal interactions between children and teachers, helping educators create richer, more engaging learning environments. With nearly 1 in 5 Hoosier third graders lacking foundational reading skills, this partnership is crucial for building strong language skills early on.

🔢✨ Did you know early math skills are a key predictor of future academic success? Starting math in preschool builds a strong foundation for critical thinking and problem-solving! A new article from The 74 Media addresses the importance of starting math instruction early. At Early Learning Indiana, we use the Getting On Track tool to assess math and language skills early. This helps identify children who need extra support before they fall behind, ensuring every student has a strong foundation. The foundation being laid at Day Early Learning centers for math readiness is key for long-term academic and career success!
