1 A la Escuela Primaria de Washburn Taller: La familia y la lecturaBienvenidos! A la Escuela Primaria de Washburn Taller: La familia y la lectura Thank you for coming to school tonight. We have a wonderful event planned for the evening with the shared goal of inspiring our children to a lifelong love of reading. We know that parents are the child’s first teacher and there are many simple things that you all can do each day with your children to set them up for reading success. At the event you will have a chance to get to know one another, share ideas, and create reading pledges with your children. We also will be experiencing the build-a-book activity together where each of your children will work with you to write and illustrate their own book. Introduce Facilitator’s…. Share any reading goals/reading programs in place at your school

2 …es una investigación práctica basada en la iniciativa de alfabetización familiar enfocada en empoderar familias y comunidades en apoyar a su niños en el desarrollo de la lectura. Read and Rise began in 2001 to support children’s literacy and to actively engage families in their children’s literacy development. 2 2

3 Compartir nuestra historia familiarThe Family Literacy workshop starts off with group sharing…. At the beginning the facilitator shares something that they learned from a family member that is connected to their development into a reader or a special value that was passed down. Examples might include a family member that sang to them each night before they went to bed, or playing “I Spy” when driving in the car to learn letters, saying prayers together are all examples of real life things that participants share during this part of the program. After the facilitator shares an example, the attendees break into small groups and share their experiences growing up and how a family member helped them learn to read and/or another value that they learned from a family member. After the small breakout groups share together, each group is asked to share with the larger group. The facilitator links what the group shares back to the concept that a family member is the child’s first teacher and what we pass on to our children are important lessons. Together the group explores how learning to read begins at home and how families play a critical part in instilling the love of reading in children. 3 3

4 Guía de la familia Following the “Group Sharing of Family Values” the facilitator does a Booktalk using the Read and Rise Family Guide. There is a family guide for every student that attends the program at the school. It’s a flip-book, meaning that when you flip it over, it’s the story book “Giraffes Can’t Dance” en espanol. The Family Guide is full of tips and suggestions by age on how to encourage reading development at home. It is also full of stories for children birth to age 9. The Read and Rise Family guide is a great resource for families. After the Family Guide Booktalk…the facilitator shares the basics of early literacy development…

5 Habilidades básicas de la lectura tempranaLenguaje oral Conocimiento del Abecedario Habilidad para expresarse verbalmente y comunicar sus ideas Conocer nombres y formas de las letras del alfabeto Conceptos de la letra empresa Reconomiento fonólogico What this program does is that it takes the four early literacy skills that educators focus on to help children learn to read and it translates how parents can support this skill development at home. Helping parents and caregivers learn how to support early literacy development at home is aided by focusing on the four building blocks of literacy which are: Oral Language- the ability to verbally express and communicate ideas. Letter Knowledge- knowing the names and shapes of letters of the alphabet. Phonological Awareness- the ability to recognize the sounds of spoken language. Concepts of Print- knowledge about use of books and printed materials. The workshop provides specific details on each literacy skill and how parents and caregivers can reinforce them at home. After the review of the early literacy skills shown here..

12 Para apoyar el desarollo de la lectura en el hogarYo me comprometo a… __________________________________ _________________ ____________ Firma de un miembro de la familia Firma del estudiante Inside the Read and Rise Family Guide there is a printed Reading Pledge that parents complete. It’s a pledge with each of their children. Here is an example of a pledge that is similar to the one in the Family Guide. After the reading pledge is completed by both the parent and child, the families transition to the build-a-book activity. This tool is also available as a downloadable reproducible. Many schools have posted these reading pledges throughout the school. Many schools invite parents to volunteer to share their reading pledges with the larger group. This is a wonderful and powerful way to conclude this segment of the program. Be sure to remind your parents to reconnect with their children and share the reading pledge and add any details that the child feels are important. Everyone signs and commits to making reading a daily habit! 12

13 Leer da poder-Noche de la familia y la lectura Actividad de construir un libroThe Build-a-Book activity is conducted after the Family Literacy Workshop. Families create their books together and make the connection to several of the basic early literacy skills that are introduced earlier in the program. For example, concepts of print and how to hold a book – letter recognition and how to write words for their books – how stories have a beginning, middle and an end. These are important skills that are reinforced during this part of the program. Once the families have completed their build-a-books, the event is complete. Most schools offer refreshments during the event. Toward the end of the event, schools may also invite individual children to come up to the front of the room to share a page from their book. Children line up at the front and share their books. Familia disfruten juntos la actividad de la construcción de un libro como parte del evento. 13 13

14 Muestra de algunas pagina de un libroThe Build-a-Book program is an exclusive make and take activity where families build, not just write, a very special, one-of-a-kind book. Using craft materials and a blank spiral bound book, families build a book (and a memory) they’ll keep forever. These images are an example of how creative families are using the items found in the build a book kits. Many schools use this slide to show families what kinds of things can be created using the contents of each build-a-book kit. Don’t forget to have scissors and glue on hand at each build-a-book table for families to use to create their books. Check out all of the resources online as well as on the chairperson’s toolkit for ideas to ensure your build-a-book activity is a huge success.

15 Thank you very much for coming to our school’s Read and Rise Family Reading Night. We encourage each family to post your reading pledge somewhere prominent in your home. Work together to enjoy books and reading together each day. Schools incorporate their school-wide reading goals, potential recognition events/incentives to keep the students/families reading together daily to conclude the program. Have a wonderful evening.
