The Parent/Teacher Literacy Resource

Joyful Reading Success at Home

A Treasure Chest of Tips and Tools

We designed this Resource to be a comprehensive toolbox for preschools, schools and other organizations who work directly with parents and their children. It will be helpful for early learning educators and new primary teachers. It is rooted in the latest research-based strategies to ensure joyful literacy learning.

This Resource features the five most essential literacy skills:

  • Phonics: Connecting alphabet letters to sounds,

  • Phonological Awareness: Hearing and working with sounds,

  • Fluency: Learning about reading smoothly and with expression,

  • Vocabulary: Knowing what words mean, and

  • Comprehension: Understanding and thinking about what is read.
