IRA Effective Literacy Website #3

Website: National Children’s Literacy


The National Children’s Literacy Website is a not-for-profit website that is dedicating to promoting literacy as “an integral factor in the growth of society, and enhancing literacy in a variety of home and child care settings.”
This is a perfect read for those looking at taking a proactive approach at promoting literacy in their homes and childcare facilities. This site also offers excellent and practical parenting tips that I (as a first time parent) found really interesting.  Some of the topics include: General Literacy Tips, 5 Reading Skills Children Need, How Schools Teach Reading and The First 5 Years Matter and Educational Activities (to name a few).

            Overall, I would like to promote this website and encourage both parents, and educators alike to be mindful of these tips in order to promote literacy and improve a child’s attitude toward reading that will carry them throughout their lives.

Happy Reading!

  1. Thank you for sharing this, Bianca! The site URL looks very familiar to me. I think I may have looked at it last summer. I will take a look at it again. It's something that would be great to add to my classroom website . . . once I get that going. ;-)
