LSH Home

Welcome to the Literacy at School and Home site! This site is designed to provide families of kindergarten through third-grade children with information about writing, emergent literacy, word knowledge, and comprehension. Each page includes an overview of the topic, examples of classroom practices, family activities, and print and technology-based resources. The Cohort 11/12 UTEEM students at George Mason University are preparing to work with culturally, linguistically, and ability diverse young children and their families. They invite you to explore the information they have gathered about literacy at school and home.
