N is 3 years old. She is an only child to a single mother. She's an intelligent and feisty child. She struggles with being told "No" and regulating her emotions. She enjoys dramatic play and working independently.

Evidence of N’s growth in The Language of Literacy, based on the AWL Curriculum Framework, can be seen in her interest in puzzles, which supports her ability to recognize shapes and colors, early literacy concepts tied to symbol and print awareness. Her engagement in independent play with puzzles shows she is developing problem-solving skills and beginning to understand how parts form a whole, which relates to early comprehension. As she works with puzzles and interacts with others about them, she is also practicing using language to describe, ask questions, and express ideas, all of which are key components of expressive and receptive communication in early literacy.

N is interested in independent play. She is also interested in puzzles which can help her language and literacy skills by learning to problem solve and identify different shapes and colors.

To support N’s development, families or her next teacher can provide more puzzles that include letters, numbers, shapes, and colors to build on her interests while encouraging language and literacy skills. They can also talk with her during play to build vocabulary, ask questions that promote problem-solving, and offer opportunities for her to tell stories about the puzzle pictures. These steps will help N continue to grow through play in a fun and engaging way.
