Early Literacy Programs are used at our school to assist students in achieving the skills needed to be independent readers. These programs provide individually designed lessons to help a student who is having reading difficulties to develop the kinds of strategies used by good beginning readers. The child receives instruction at school for approximately thirty minutes each day in addition to regular in class supports. Materials/books are sent home each night for parents to work on with their child.
Parent support at home is an essential component of the program and may be a requirement for your child to receive this particular type of support. We encourage you to discuss this with your child's teacher.
