Parent Workshop

How to promote reading in the home

The Parent Workshop gives parents tools to effectively work with their children and to develop literacy skills needed for school success.

The workshop is approximately an hour and a half in length. Parents and child are encouraged to attend the workshop together, depending on the child's maturity level. Different techniques are utilized to encourage parents and their child to spend time together. Some of the activities include: Letter Swap, Alphabet picture book, Sound Clapping and the Color of Sound. Parents will also be given tips on how to read aloud to their child and how to use the library as a way to support their child's reading development.

We want to eliminate illiteracy by concentrating on the very young. I hope that you will join us in this effort as we strive to give children enriching and stimulating experiences to nurture their growth, development and learning.

We are excited about this wonderful new venture and look forward to discussing ways of working together. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have questions.
