Engage the Circle | The Belonging Project

Emergent Literacy Course

This course invites educators, students, and school communities into a deeper understanding of belonging through the lens of Emergent Literacy. Through story, case examples, and practical routines, the course connects inclusive literacy instruction with the deeper work of belonging: being seen as capable, having something to say, and being invited into shared meaning. Designed for real systems as opposed to idealized classrooms, this course equips adults to design environments where communication, reading, and writing are available to everyone.
