The Born Learning Academy

Date:

Monday, October 10, 2016 - 5:00pm

We have a few spots left for our first Born Learning Academy at MES. This program is for ANY child in Butler County from birth to the time they start kindergarten!

The program is designed to put early education information in our parents hands because they are the child's first teacher. The BLA will begin on Monday, October 10th at 5:00 and it is a program for the whole family. Space is limited and openings are available to the first families who contact us in regard to the Academy. Involvement in this program is designed to increase kindergarten readiness.

It’s the simple things that make a difference in building a young child’s foundation for success in school and life. It’s not flash cards or expensive educational toys, it’s making your grocery trip into a treasure hunt for colors and shapes. Turn bath time into a silly song about body parts. Even dinner can become a learning opportunity, as your toddler builds math skills by counting eggs.
Sound simple? Well, that’s the idea—to turn everyday activities into opportunities for parents to encourage learning. The United Way Born Learning Academy offers you tips, tools and resources to do just that. It’s a series of six free workshops that provide your family with tools and resources to turn everyday activities into early learning moments. The workshops are at night at Morgantown Elementary, with food and childcare provided.
