"Reality Check": Through law, policy and investment, Alabama is placing an unprecedented emphasis on raising the state’s level of educational attainment. The state has recognized that the cornerstone of economic competitiveness is providing a quality education for all Alabamians, which starts with literacy. PARCA’s research consistently finds a close correlation between educational achievement and measures of employment, income, health, and personal safety. The research also shows stubborn gaps in academic achievement between communities, gaps that must be acknowledged and addressed if progress is to be made.
"Making the Right Connections: Embracing the Teacher/Parent Partnership to Promote Student Literacy Achievement": In order to help close the literacy achievement gap, an all hands on deck approach must be embraced. Children are great reflectors and imitators. They imitate and reflect what they are exposed to and what they experience. Imagine the impact if everyone invested in their literacy achievement spoke to their needs and exposed them to opportunities to sharpen their skills! Well, it’s possible. Through presentation, along with hands-on strategies, and access to user-friendly online resources, this session will address how partnerships and collaboration between the family, community, and school can easily transform students motivation, perception, and academic achievement.
"Building a Culture of Literacy" Building a culture of literacy in our schools isn’t about raising reading scores only. When parents, schools and the community unites together as one to celebrate the joy of reading, learning, and discovering new opportunities, the benefit is rewarding.
Research tells us: that children who read more read better, and that being able to read means you are more likely to be successful in life and to contribute to society.
In this session participants will leave with the knowledge of understanding how to build an inclusive culture of literacy from home, to school and the community.
