Project: Family Literacy Project
|
The project’s goals are to bring the mothers to a high beginning level of ESL and learn to become an integral factor in their children’s schooling. The program involves weekly parenting classes and daily interaction time where they read and work with their children. The adults develop English language, parenting skills and gain self-esteem, while their children learn English pre-reading and language skills. The children are ready to enter pre-school while the mothers gain increased job and educational opportunities. The young mothers must commit to participating for the entire school year.
