Raising Readers Video

    

I recently came acoss a video called "Raising Readers" at GetReadytoRead.org. 

According to the website, the Get Ready to Read! program works to build the early-literacy skills of pre-school age children.

The video shows some fun activites that parents can do with their young children who are getting ready to read.  Activities include playing listening games, reading before bedtime, and making your own books.  Practicing these skills at home will give children a jump-start in thier literacy skills and will help to instill a love of reading in these future students.
