Utah Kids Ready to Read 2.0 Relaunch Party

Join us as we celebrate the relaunch of Utah Kids Ready to Read! Our UKRTR 2.0 is a fresh, updated version, with a new logo, new website, new materials, and training opportunities. Our panelists will discuss the neuroscience of early literacy, share resources on The Science of Reading, and provide tips for incorporating the 5 practices and 6 skills into storytime to model to caregivers. We’ll also share our process of redesigning and relaunching Utah Kids Ready to Read.
