This week, North Broadway and Reidy Creek schools celebrated the end of Part 2 of our Cuentos Familiares Workshop as part of The Latino Literacy Project, a family reading program designed to establish family reading routines for Spanish-speaking and English-speaking parents and their children at their school site. The program offers quality bilingual books (English/Spanish), English-language development, vocabulary review, and an engaging curriculum to promote a focus on family literacy. The program encourages parents to read with their children to enhance their reading and language skills, reflects the experiences of Latino families, and is centered around universal themes.
We believe the partnership between the home and the school is an important part of each student’s success, and “The Latino Family Literacy Project offers us a way to continue this initiative.
Congratulations and thank you to all of our participants for engaging in all the activities with enthusiasm.
