Milam, Claire Martinez, Laura Bilingualism Charts Emergent Literacy English (Second Language) Family English Literacy Family Environment Grade 1 Grade 2 Individualized Reading Instructional Materials Kindergarten Literacy Education Parent Participation Preschool Education Primary Education Second Language Instruction Second Language Learning This document describes in considerable detail how to promote literacy through a home-reading program for young children. It is asserted that literacy is an ongoing process that benefits from early home involvement of parents, and that parents need to be brought into the process early. A home-reading program based on a lending library is essential for some students as their homes may have few, if any, books, periodicals, or newspapers. Most of the document consists of a series of checklists for teachers to help them design and implement a home-reading program. Among the titles of these checklists include the following: "One Way To Arrange & Manage Books"; "Working With Caregivers"; and "How To Support the Reader." Also included are numerous bilingual (English and Spanish) handouts for families and children with titles such as: "Book Rules" and "Ten Reasons To Read Aloud to Your Child Regularly," and blank forms for book reports and homework logs. Diagrams, illustrations, and figures appear frequently throughout the text. (KFT)
