Hart Interim Library: United for Literacy Training
December 19, 2023 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Every Child Ready to Read
United Way of Rock River Valley and Rockford Public Library invite you to a free, one-hour training. This training is suitable for parents of young children and all volunteers who will share early literacy skills with children and families of young children (infant to pre-k). Professionals who want to learn more about early childhood reading readiness will also benefit from this training.
This training provides loads of early literacy tips, and participants will leave with a goody bag, including a beautiful picture book perfect for sharing with children and families. The training is based on the American Library Association’s Every Child Ready to Read curriculum and supports the United Way initiative – United for Literacy: Read to Succeed.
The 60-minute training will have 45 minutes of material, ending with a 15-minute “storytime” demo. This training is interactive, and there will be time for questions.
If you would like more information, please get in touch with Brook Loomis at Rockford Public Library at bloomis@rockfordpubliclibrary.org.
