From the supplier: Literacy props in the classroom can greatly aid children's literacy development. A tool that teachers can use to evaluate whether their classrooms encourage literacy behaviors is the Environmental Literacy Scan. It reminds teachers that literacy props can be installed in areas aside from the traditional reading and meeting areas, such as a block area, a puzzles and manipulatives area, a dramatic play area and a natural science area.
