[LM_NET] TAR: Teen/toddler reading program

[Julie Dahlhauser <juldahl@GMAIL.COM>]

Dear Wise Ones,

I have this idea about starting a high school reading program that would
involve teens learning to do storytimes with young children. Struggling teen
readers would enhance their own reading ability while sharing great
readalouds with their siblings and with the children in our on-site day care
program.

I thought I had read about programs like this--I don't think I made this
up--but I'm having trouble finding any research or similar program within a
public school. Do any of you know where I could look for information?
Research? Facts and figures to back me up? Experience with something like
this?

I appreciate your help.
