IRA Newsletter Project: Effective Literacy Website
#1
Reading Rockets (http://www.readingrockets.org/) is
national multimedia literacy initiative offering information and resources on
how young kids learn to read, why so many struggle, and how caring adults can
help. The website offers research-based strategies to teachers, parents,
administrators, librarians, childcare providers, and anyone else involved in
helping a young child become a strong, confident reader. The goal of Reading
Rockets is to bring the reading research to life — to spread the word about
reading instruction and to present "what works" in a way that parents
and educators can understand and use. Reading Rockets creates and publishes
free, evidence-based information about reading through the three major
services: PBS television programs, online services, and professional
development opportunities. Reading Rockets provides free resources about
teaching children to read and helping kids who struggle. You’ll find a hundreds
of articles on teaching reading, classroom strategies, in-classroom video,
parent tips in 11 languages, video interviews with top children’s book authors,
a daily news service, and much more. Reading Rockets also produces free
webcasts for teacher professional development. The webcasts offer teachers an
opportunity to hear from national experts, and are available online to watch at
any time.
