Parent/Guardian Engagement Series: Early Literacy In-Person

Morley Library is partnering with the Educational Service Center of Western Reserve to offer a 3-part series of parent/guardian engagement programs. Registration is requested. 

March 4 - Early Literacy

Neuroscience has given us expansive insight into how we learn to read and what children need to become strong readers. In this session, we will share the research about reading, talk about evidence-based practices for early literacy (preschool through Grade 3) and look at the important role home life can have in building skills readers need.  Participants will learn both how to support early literacy skills and how to advocate for their children when schools may not be aligning their practices with The Science of Reading. In the second half of the session, we will view and discuss clips from the  award-winning documentary The Right to Read. This is open to family, caregivers, and anyone who wants to continue to support our early learners in developing critical literacy skills.

March 11 - Bullying

Middle School is when bullying is reported the most. Empowering our caregivers with knowledge and tools is an important way to address and prevent bullying.  Learn about the warning signs to look out for, how to handle the situation if your child experiences or contributes to bullying and how to talk to your child's school about bullying.  

March 19 - Chronic Absenteeism

In this series we will go over what chronic absenteeism is, how we as parents/caregivers can support student attendance and end with some tips for reducing chronic absence.
