Are you a parent or caregiver of a preschooler who is enrolled in a Preschool for All or Preschool for All Expansion classroom? If yes, this message is for YOU! Today, November 9, 2020, The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) and the Behavioral Insights and Parenting (BIP) Lab at the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy announced a partnership to deliver a text messaging program called Chat2Learn designed to boost school readiness. The Chat2Learn program aims to establish a habit among parents of engaging in the development of their children’s foundational skills for school readiness at home. This is especially important while in-person learning at early childhood centers remains limited due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The program draws on behavioral science to reduce informational and cognitive barriers to parents’ engagement in their children’s learning. Chat2Learn applies behavioral tools to prompt natural conversations between parents and children that inspire learning, exploration, social-emotional connection, and creative thinking. Preschool for All and Preschool for All Expansion parents/caregivers can start signing up now by contacting their child's classroom Family Educator. Text messages begin on Dec. 6 and continue through June 30, 2021. Contact Mr. Coate if interested.
