Reports

DEY has been publishing relevant reports for early childhood advocates, citing recent research and comprehensive but easily understood narrative on topics of concern to educators. Its first report, "Reading Instruction in Kindergarten: Little to Gain, Much to Lose," written by Nancy Carlsson-Paige, Geralyn Bywater McLauglin, and Joan Almon, was published in 2014 and is still relevant today. Since then, DEY has published reports on a number of subjects from math curriculum to children and technology to the impact of COVID-19.
