Listen In: The Successful Learner Equation

Olivia Christensen and Jon Vaupel from MDE's Division of Early Learning were welcomed on a podcast through the Center for Inclusive Childcare. Listen as they discuss supporting children and their learning pathway through the Successful Learner Equation, which reminds us that it is not the responsibility of the child to be "ready" for school. It is the responsibility of adults, schools/programs, environments, communities, and systems to be ready to support each child.
