Used in hundreds of communities, Make Reading Fun! is an ideal introductory family involvement program.Through a series of meetings, you can show parents how to read with their children and communicate better-in ways that are fun for both. Parents become more involved with their children's learning, and children's reading comprehension and motivation to read are given a boost. Each participant will receive all the training and materials needed to lead a Make Reading Fun! program for parents with children from birth through Grade 9 - a HUGE manual plus the book, Help Your Child Read and Succeed.Transparencies and handout masters in Spanish are available. |
