[Fopbc] Fwd Right to Literacy workshop info

[Lenora Marten]

Hi Everyone, 
 
I just received this information from the presenter of one of the exciting workshops that will be held at the NOPBC Parents Seminar at Convention. Hope to see you there. 
 
Early literacy is helping children – beginning in infancy – build critical exploratory, book sharing, and language skills that pave the way for reading braille, print, or both when they are older. In the 11:00 session, “The Right to Literacy for Young Blind/VI Children,” presenters Ann Burgess and Barbara Bailey offer content suitable for parents, teachers, and early interventionists of infants, toddlers, and primary grade children who are blind, or have multiple disabilities. This is not a session on how to teach reading; instead, we will help participants build a strong foundation for literacy development.
