So what exactly is literacy? Becky Spence, mother, homeschooler, and author of her blog, This Reading Mama, has created a pamphlet of definitions for parents on literacy and terms that go along with it. Her blog aims to help educate parents on how they can help struggling learners. Check out the pamphlet here!

Or do you have a child who absolutely loves to read? Do you want to show your child a way to make a little money through reading? If so, check out the Rockland Trust Reading Makes Cents Program! This program runs from June through August, and is designed to get kids to read for cash. Students must read up to 10 books and complete a Rockland Trust Summer Reading journal. This is a great opportunity to get your kids excited about reading, and you can help them practice their reading and their interaction with texts. Click on the link for more details!
