I am particularly curious to learn if any one has used the Waterford Early Reading Program, a computer based program aimed at the emergent reader at the kindergarten and first grade level in conjunction with their parents who are also novice readers. I teach in a family ESL literacy program in Fairfax Co., VA .Many of the parents in my program are not literate or have low literacy skills in their first language. The K-12 program offers a wide range of programs in our elementary schools, such as Reading Recovery, Partners in Print and the Waterford Early Reading Program. I would be interested to know if anyone has used these programs (or any others) to provide reading instruction to the parents of the children involved in their programs. Thanks for your info.
