Grab and Grow helps little people get a good start on learning

Dr. Carl Hurley and Superintendent Dr. Pam Stephens said to teachers and staff on opening day of this 2019-2020 school year, "On a clear day you can see tomorrow - that’s the kind of work educators are in." Teachers at Adair County Primary Center, Jodie Stephens and Laura Keltner, doing their work investing in the future, have developed a creative way to help little learners as they grow into tomorrow's leaders.

By Linda Waggener

Educators Laura Keltner, kindergarten interventionist at ACPC; and Jodie Stephens, preschool teacher at ACPC; have created a new intervention service named “Grab and Grow Intervention” meant to help families with young children.

Grab and Grow Intervention was created by these two Interdisciplinary Early Childhood Educators in a mission to partner with and support parents of children ages birth to five years with everyday learning experiences.



Their goal is to set a foundation for a love for learning that not only prepares a child for school, but for life.

Supporting families with learning ideas to help meet children's developmental milestones, these activities are built around everyday materials that are quick and easy to grab, simple to teach, fun to learn, and always foster children’s growth.

Two recent issues from their YouTube channel are below:

Jodie reading Dogku by Andrew Clements Goal: "We hope this book will ease separation anxiety in a fun, furry way!"

Laura reading Pete the Cat Too Cool for School by James Dean
