THE PROBLEM:
Not scalable, ineffective resources
The challenges for teachers — and parents — are overwhelming.
Too many children in the US and around the world are not meeting minimum levels of literacy proficiency.
The result? Teachers feel burned out and parents worry their child will not succeed.
It’s time for a change.
OUR SOLUTION:
Training & RESOURCES — tailored for TEACHERS & FAMILIES
Our partner organizations provide literacy training and resources on and off-screen that are:
- Relevant and engaging
- Evidence-based
- Affordable
- Multilingual
- Easy-to-use in many environments
Through our partnerships with StoryWorld International, Indigi (Philippines), sQuid (Africa), and the Global Action Platform (GAP), we are working to extend access to evidence-based digital resources in the US and throughout the world.
OUR SOLUTION:
Evidence-based instruction that gets results
Our 3-hour training program prepares teachers, tutors, and parents with easy-to-follow approaches that prepare chldren to become confident readers.
Our 30-minute lessons are easy to follow with links to abundant phonics materials and vocabulary-building exercises.
All materials are designed to move students from non-readers to reading fluency in a step-by-step process..
Training for teachers
Our partner, Indigi Learning is helping Indigenous populations build prosperity through education. A project of the Global Action Platform, the Indigi Learning is supported by one of the largest grants ever given by Rotary International. The project recently launched a comprehensive teacher training program in The Philippines.
Training for Teachers & Tutors
Indigi learning
Through our partner, Indigi Learning, we developed a training program that builds on the transformative power of stories as the centerpiece of instruction. The stories create connections across all disciplines and build a strong foundation for literacy.
Coaching for Afterschool and Families
Storyworld
Our training programs for families focuses on strength of families “reading together” with their children. This program trains parents (or important family members) on best practices using at-home resources that help children read at grade-level.
Scaling globally on digital learning platforms
Imlango in africa
iMlango, a project of sQuid, has already registered over 250,000 students in Kenya, offering an invaluable baseline in digital program rostering in Africa.
