Building Life-Long Readers in the Swipe and Tap World —Futureproofing Literacy for Generation Alpha with Louise Park

Generation Alpha are the first true digital natives — swiping, tapping, and navigating devices from the cradle. As screens become ever-present and change speeds up, how can parents and educators build confident readers in this new world?

In this engaging, research-based workshop, we’ll explore essential literacy foundations — from handwriting to screen time, and from the science of reading to the joy of book ownership.

You’ll learn:
• The 7 essential literacy skills
• The role of handwriting for reading
• How to balance books and technology
• Why book ownership matters and matching readers to the just-right book

Perfect for parents, carers, educators, and leaders, this workshop gives you the tools to nurture strong, joyful, lifelong readers.
