What Should We Expect of Family Literacy?

Resource Type

Book

Description

"This book is a valuable resource for pre-school and elementary teachers who teach diverse classes, and for those involved in family literacy programs. It explores in detail the effects of parental involvement in a literacy project on Latino children's academic performance. The authors investigate the ways that parents who participate in an intergenerational literacy project support their children's academic achievement, the ways these children use literacy at home alone and with their parents, and the nature of these children's school experiences." --Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
