(Reading Together, we Advance)

Research shows that learning in your primary language greatly increases success in your secondary language.

Leyendo Avanzamos is our own culturally specific parent-led Spanish reading intervention program. It teaches Spanish-speaking parents how to teach reading to their K – 2nd grade children enrolled in bilingual or dual elementary school programs. They learn how to help children build skills in phonics, reading, writing, vocabulary, fluency and comprehension. SKCE values language as culture and strives to help families keep their first language at home with their children. That’s why we believe Bilingual or Dual Language Education Programs are the most effective ways of assuring the overall success of our Spanish speaking children with Spanish-speaking households. Parents receive all the materials they need to teach phonics, reading, writing, vocabulary and comprehension at home in 10 weekly classes with their children.
