Through online and in-person workshops and a summer literacy program, this project connects researchers and teachers with families of elementary school children to collaboratively create resources to enhance reading and digital learning at school and at home. A key aim is to help culturally and linguistically diverse families feel part of the school’s decision-making process in reading and learning.

A través de talleres y programas de verano sobre la lectura, este proyecto conecta a investigadores y maestros con familias de alumnos en una escuela primara para crear recursos de forma colaborativa para apoyar la lectura y el aprendizaje digital, en la escuela y la casa. Uno de los objetivos es apoyar a las familias culturalmente y linguísticamente diversas, a sentirse parte de los procesos de toma de decisions sobre lectura y aprendizaje.
