PreK On MyWay ’s Mind Builder social-emotional skill-building methodology is rooted in the work of the Yale Child Study Center + Scholastic Collaborative—together we believe in the power of story to transform children’s futures. With a focus on the intersection of literacy and health across a range of education imperatives—including early childhood development, social-emotional learning, equity, social justice, and family and community engagement—our ultimate goal is to improve academic and mental health outcomes for children and their families.
Through this collaborative and our partnership with Dr. Linda Mayes, we will ensure that we are meeting the mental, physical, emotional, and academic needs of all children.
In partnership with the Children’s Learning Institute and Dr. Tricia Zucker at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Scholastic has built upon the successful research model known as Developing Talkers , which has led to significant growth in children’s receptive and expressive vocabulary skills. PreK On MyWay builds on the proven success of Developing Talkers to ensure that every child has the skills and vocabulary needed for confidence and success in elementary school!
