Supporting Language and Literacy Development within a Day in a Life of All Toddlers
Primary Presenter Brief Bio
My name is Britne McDuffie. I’m the lead toddler two teacher at Georgia Southern University Child Development Center. I have an associate degree in Early Childhood Education from East Georgia State College and a bachelor degree in Child and Family Development from Georgia Southern University. I’m currently working on my Master’s degree in Psychology of Child and Adolescent Development. I have had the pleasure of presenting at two conferences (Southern Conference on Children and BCDI: Summit on Children) on meeting the development needs of toddlers within a classroom setting. I have always had a passion for working with young children in a classroom setting. I am happy that I get to continue this journey onto impacting children lives. Nothing is more exciting than seeing children conquer new milestones. Each day is a new adventure filled with new things to discover and learn.

Participants will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities that support language and literacy development, while still sticking to your daily schedule in the day of the life of ALL toddlers.
