Abstract: This research article explores effective strategies for promoting foundational literacy and numeracy in early childhood education. The abstract can be improved by enhancing its clarity, structure, and depth: Many children encounter challenges with foundational literacy and numeracy skills during their initial years of schooling, impacting their overall academic success. Through an extensive review of existing literature, this study identifies evidence-based strategies for fostering these essential skills. The research undertook a comprehensive literature review, detailing the search strategy, databases used, and inclusion/exclusion criteria for transparency. The study underscores the significance of various evidence-based strategies, including play-based learning, teacher training and support, family and community involvement, and the integration of technology. Moreover, it emphasizes the importance of cultural relevance and diversity in promoting foundational literacy and numeracy.
