    Excellent introduction to environmental and functional print! This course introduces what environmental and functional print are and includes lots of easy-to-implement ways to use environmental and functional print to build pre-reading skills. My favorite parts were all the hands-on teaching ideas that could be used in a huge variety of educational settings, like word walls, calendars, and menus!
