Reading Rockets Reading Center
Even though we call it a "basic," learning to read isn't easy. Thanks to research, we now know how to build the foundations for reading before school, how to teach children to read in school, and how to help those who struggle. Thanks to this Reading Center, we now can provide this information to you!

PBS has recently launched an important initiative, which directly supports parents. PBS Parents combines the resources of PBS stations across the country to offer advice and educational activities dedicated to help parents and caregivers raise children who are ready to learn.

Ready to Learn
To raise a successful child, parents and primary caregivers must take into consideration their health and safety, social and emotional growth, cognitive and language development, problem-solving and creative-thinking skills, and knowledge about their culture and heritage. Through the Ready To Learn service, CET offers free workshops for parents and daycare providers. Matched with the great children's programming like Barney and Friends, Sesame Street and Teletubbies, the workshops focus on the importance of actively viewing the programming and using that experience as a springboard to reading good children's books and doing developmentally appropriate activities.
