Our local read-in will be held on Thursday, January 29 in conjunction with the National Convention of Reading Recovery . It will be held in Columbus and will bring over 4,000 reading specialists to town. We hope that each school will hold some type of special reading activity on that day. An information packet will come from CEA to each faculty representative on this topic. Our special emphasis will be on the primary grades, but everyone is encouraged to participate.
Every teacher knows the importance of reading.
Help us promote reading by planning a special activity at your school. A general conclusion of the study produces no surprises. Success on the proficiency test is almost entirely dictated by the economic status of the students. Of course, this is not news to any teacher in Columbus. CEA held a press conference to articulate this very opinion when the tests first started.
