PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

FROM 3 TO 3® is based on three years of extensive research funded by the 
Government of Canada’s Social Development Partnerships Program. The program raises language, narrative and social understanding skills children need to succeed at school.

FROM 3 TO 3® is an effective program that keeps children asking for it again and again. Built on three straight forward components the program curriculum builds from one grade to the next. A seamless, cumulative curriculum raises children’s language, narrative, reading and writing.

Starting in Kindergarten with the youngest children the program is offered in each grade until the end of Grade 3. The three program components are the same from Kindergarten to the end of Grade 3 – increasing in complexity as children achieve.

How it Works

The Orientation required for all teachers provides an introduction and overview of the program and the research that supports it. It translates theory into practice relating children’s development of social reasoning and narrative for the classroom.

The program itself is offered in three, eight week sessions: one in fall, one in winter and one in spring. In addition to the orientation, teachers attend three workshops: one at the beginning of each session. The workshops provide in-depth knowledge, practice and materials for classroom use.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

This program is for educators teaching Primary Grades: Kindergarten, Grade One, Two and Three.
