I just read about this in the Library Youth Services Newsletter from Janet Ingram Dwyer. (If you're not on the State Library Youth Services mailing list, I highly recommend signing up for it! Janet does a most fantastic job making everyone aware of what's going on in the wide world of youth services! Thanks Janet!!!)
Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy's new StoryBlocks project Storyblocks.org is a collection of 1-minute videos demonstrating rhymes and songs along with early literacy tips. Filmed in partnership with Rocky Mountain PBS, librarians throughout Colorado share successful activities as well as literacy tips. Through the videos, parents, child care providers and others will discover ways to engage very young children in fun and playful interactions that also build healthy brain development.
StoryBlocks was made possible by an IMLS grant to Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy. There are just 16 videos in the collection so far but CLEL is pursuing funding to create more. If you visit the site, view and use the videos, please fill out a feedback form, which will help Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy complete their evaluation for the LSTA report.
