My principal forwarded me something he got from
www.ReadersAreWinners.org . Part of the email says
"Everyone within the educational arena knows when parents are
involved in their children’s education the benefits are endless.
Therefore, in a creative attempt to engage parents and simultaneously
help address the literacy crisis in America, we have created a FREE
Kindergarten - 2nd grade school-to-home reading program to get
teachers, students, and parents reading together weekly, on behalf of
schools. The program is called Letter P.A.L.S. (Personalized
Adventure Letter Series)....
To date, schools in 42 states have enrolled in Letter P.A.L.S. K-2
program. Collectively, we can accomplish something very special
across America by getting parents reading with their children weekly,
on behalf of schools. Statistics tell us it's time to take a stand! "
Does anyone know about this program? Is it 'legitimate''? Is it
worthwhile? I told him I would investigate of course I thought of all
of you for added information.
Thanks!
Barb
