Literacy and Language Building

Looking to boost early language development in your program?

We're your Starting Point

At Starting Point, strong literacy and language skills are the building blocks of a child's long-term success. Our Literacy and Language Building service offers expert guidance to ensure that children, starting from infancy, are equipped with the skills they need for a bright future.

The Science of Reading

From day one, every word matters. As the pillars of the Science of Reading show us, phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, and comprehension all contribute to literacy and start well before a child gets to Kindergarten! By partnering with families, educators, and caregivers, Starting Point ensures that children are supported in environments that nurture communication, language skills, and early literacy—preparing them for success in school and beyond

The LENA Program

Our programs are grounded in the latest research in early childhood development. They incorporate innovative tools like LENA, a research-based technology that tracks and analyzes children’s language environments. Using LENA, we help families and educators understand and improve the quality and quantity of adult-child conversations, which are key to a child’s early language development.

With Starting Point’s Literacy and Language Building service, you can be confident that your child’s future is built on a solid foundation of communication, curiosity, and the joy of learning.
