Parent’s Roles Associated with Literacy Learning

· Expose your child to a range of print materials
 
· Read to your child
 
· Allow your child to have easy access to writing materials
 
· Respond to the child’s reading and writing efforts


Support Early Literacy and Language Development!! We must work together to ensure that young children have opportunities to participate in emergent literacy and language activities at home and at school. We cannot always fix the problem after children enter school.
 
No Child Left Behind: "... If we succeed in educating our youth, many other successes will follow in the lives of our citizens. ..."
President George Bush
 
"... the likelihood that a child will succeed in first grade depends most of all on how much she or he has already learned about reading getting there ..."
Dr. Marilyn Adams
