Case Studies
Family Literacy
The Family Literacy project engaged students and their families in a unit designed to improve reading fluency and comprehension. This project was a continuance of the Family Literacy Nights that were started two years ago to improve reading fluency, comprehension and overall student confidence.
They built confidence and teamwork by visiting Fresno State and Petunia’s Book Store. At Fresno State, participants met with early childhood educators who provided guidance on effective read alouds. At Petunia’s Book Store students chose the books to give away at the Family Literacy Night. These trips increased student motivation, and therefore increase the overall success of this project.
