Students in the two courses, School, Family, and Community Partnerships, and Language Arts for Elementary and Early Childhood Teachers, led a family literacy night at S&T’s Child Development Center. The night included interactive activities addressing the science of reading for children attending the center. Families were also given activity bags to continue learning with their children at home.
This event was funded through a $25,000 grant from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.”
