A Texas Prekindergarten Guidelines Training on the 2022 Revised Language and Communication Domain
Building a Strong Foundation for Emergent Literacy Language and Communication Domain




This session focuses on helping educators understand and implement the Texas Pre-Kindergarten Guidelines for the Language and Communication Domain.
