Parents at Work
Be an A+ Parent!  Parents are a
child's first informal teacher.   
Give your child the help he or
she needs to develop his or her
literacy skills.  
The quality time you spend
with your child today will have a
real impact on your child's
tomorrow.  
Congratulations on
parenthood!

5 Steps to Success

  • Step 1:  Go back to your
    child's reading level.
  • Step 2:  Build your child's
    instant/sight word
  vocabulary and speed up       
your child's word recognition.
  • Step 3:  Teach your child
    self-help sounding skills.
  • Step 4:  Interact while your
    child develops his or her
    comprehension skills.
  • Step 5:  Secure much
    interesting reading at their
    present reading level.
In 2009, Worldwide Literacy 1 has been
organized as a intervention for
illiteracy. Research has proven that if
your child has not developed reading
skills by the 3rd grade that more than
likely he or she will be an illiterate
adult.  Over 40 million Americans ages
16 and over have significant literacy
needs or they are illiterate.

In these days of advance technology
we have access to the world wide web
that allows us to process as much
information as we can imagine.  We
must be literate to understand it all.  We
believe every child can learn and
become a lifelong reader.

Literacy skills start at home with you as
your child's first teacher.  We offer
assistance for you when you have
questions about your child's progress.
