EarlyStories - Commentary on Coverage of Children’s Learning (Chipping Away at Florida's Pre-K Program)

Welcome to EarlyStories, a weblog written (mostly) by Richard Lee Colvin, the director of the Hechinger Institute on Education and the Media, Teachers College, Columbia University. It contains commentary on coverage of issues (in newspapers, magazines, television, radio, blogs) related to early childhood education, broadly defined, inside and outside of schools, preschools, subway cars, living rooms and the dining table.
