Dr. Megan Allen, NBCT

What do our kids need to know before they start  Kindergarten? And should we worry if they don't know the alphabet or their letters yet? These are some of the questions we'll tackle today with our guest, early childhood educator Danielle Goua.

Dani is a teacher in DC Public Schools who has worked with prekindergarten, Head Start, Kindergarten, and first-grade students. She is a passionate educator who loves young kids and shares some heartfelt and practical advice for parents!

Dani will share with us:

  • What we should do if our kids are "behind,"
  • The value of play and fun in learning,
  • How to build literacy skills with our young children at home.

And there are resources, folks! Please check out:

If there is a way that we can serve you through our academic coaching, virtual or in-person (western Massachusetts) tutoring, or parent services at The Community Classroom, please visit www.thecommunityclassroom.com or email info@thecommunityclasssroom.
