Literacy is developed throughout a young student’s day. In this technological age, schools are seeing technology as a tool to engage learners, as well as provide dynamic content not readily available in books.

• Explain the importance of considering the learners’ needs and development when selecting instructional technology.
• Describe developmentally appropriate practices to ensure the safe, legal, and ethical use of technology in the classroom.
• Identify three different literacy standards and discuss ways technology can support instruction for each standard.
• Describe 3-5 technological tools to support literacy instruction and how the tools could be implemented in the early childhood classroom.

Include a title slide, reference slide, and speaker’s notes.

Support your findings with 2-3 scholarly resources.
