It's really a two-fold approach. First, the program emphasizes story sharing with the children. Then the adult session teaches you to recognize themes, morals of the stories and apply them to our lives as you're talking about the book with your children. |
The sessions have a support group format, so everyone who goes through can see they're not alone. Everyone has some literacy skills, whether you're an avid reader or someone who doesn't read. The program helps people identify what skills they do have and uses those skills to share stories with their children. |
You don't have to read and pronounce every word on a page to share books with a child. |
