Praise for Building Readers

"A child's first and most important 'teacher' is the parent. Building Readers is easy to read and has some great pointers that can be readily implemented without running to the store for materials. Putting this in the hands of our parents will give our students one more opportunity to become strong readers and lifelong learners."
  • Marci Brueggen, Principal
    Linwood Elementary School
    Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
"Active parent involvement is proving to work in enhancing students' reading skills. Parents often do not know how to help. Building Readers will give them practical tips."
  • Darrell Rud, Principal
    Garfield Elementary School
    Billings, Montana
"Students without parental support usually fall behind. But many parents don't have good examples of how to teach their children to read. The ideas in Building Readers give them easy suggestions and activities for their busy lives. The ideas in the sample issues are great. Combined with our own monthly newsletter, Building Readers will demonstrate that I'm working in partnership, in a subtle way, to assist parents and show them the importance of reading."
  • Dr. Paul G. Young, Principal
    West Elementary School
    Lancaster, Ohio
"The ideas in Building Readers are practical and easy to implement, the content is solid and the format is attractive and inviting. It's a great way for the principal to send parents the important message that teaching reading is a team effort."
  • Dr. Nancy Richmond, Principal
    Amsterdam School
    Belle Mead, New Jersey
"The ability to read is probably the single greatest factor necessary for success in school. Building Readers is a practical, non-threatening way to provide parents and their children with guidance and support for age-appropriate reading and readiness activities in the home. Articles are short, to the point and easy to understand. The activities suggested are practical and the required materials are the everyday, around-the-house variety. Also, Building Readers may be seen as a benefit parents are getting from the school—an outreach effort."
  • Richard Houseknecht, Principal
    Manor Elementary School
    Levittown, Pennsylvania
"Children learn to read earlier and better when they're supported at home. Building Readers contains concrete suggestions in brief, easy-to-read articles. It will reinforce what we tell parents at orientations, during conferences and in our own publications."
  • Don Behrens, Principal
    Marcy School
    Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin
