Transcription de la présentation
  1. Early Childhood Development Through Reading COM 215 Service Project; Michael Finnegan, Gerson Ramirez, Christina Ortiz, Amanda Iswan, Samantha O’Neill

  2. Children who are read to at home have a higher success rate in school. • Video

  3. Facts According to a 2000 study by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), a division of the U.S. Department of Education children who were read to frequently are more likely to: • count to 20, or higher than those who were not (60% vs. 44%) • write their own names (54% vs. 40%) • read or pretend to read (77% vs. 57%) • recognized all letters of the alphabet (26% vs. 14%)

  4. How To Help • Provide more reading material in your home • Plan reading time with your children into week • Bring your children to reading events held at libraries and schools • Insure day cares, schools and camps provide reading time • Volunteer at local libraries, schools and camps to read to children

  5. Pre-planning (change title) • Gerson’s stuff/pictures

  6. Actual event (change title) • Christina’s stuff/pictures

  7. Putting a Project together: • Split up group members for different tasks • Assessed the event and how successful it was • Worked as a group to create our paper and presentation • Cohesive group members • Now a well-oiled machine!

  8. Successful? • The children loved it. • The parents praised us afterwards. • We had fun and felt successful! • However… - just a small dent in the kids who need to be read to - mothers who came were already “regulars”

  9. Other Programs • Issue isn’t lack of programs or books! • Library reading programs (like at Hamden Public Library, also offered in public libraries in cities around the globe) • New Haven Read to Grow • Book Drives • Library Cards are usually free! JUST AN ISSUE OF AWARENESS & GETTING PEOPLE TO THE PROGRAMS!

  10. We learned… • How much a difference reading in early childhood can make on a person’s entire learning and life • There are countless books designed specifically to help engage children and get them excited about learning! • How many children are missing out on such a simple thing that could impact their entire futures.

  11. “Next Time…” • Advertise better so we can get others aside from the library “regulars” • Reach out to families who don’t understand the importance of reading to kids • Find ways to further preach the importance to reading in childhood development and the existence of these programs in libraries and such.
