In this assignment ,you will develop a Kaltura recording, including a PowerPoint presentation of Morrow’s family literacy framework. This framework should be based on the Parent/Guardian Involvement Framework found on page 378 of your Morrow textbook. The framework describes family involvement in language and literacy development within a child’s microsystem. The audience for this presentation is parents and guardians of children in the environment you have begun your interviews in. Be mindful that when sharing information, including parent-friendly language will be helpful.
- Describe a microsystem and its impact on a student.
- Describe a framework in which educators and family members can support a child’s reading and literacy development as a part of the microsystem.
- Include a background overview of reading theoretical frames and research-based practices that form the basis of the framework.
- Describe the importance of family involvement in developing reading and literacy skills for young children.
- Describe the specific role that parents or guardians will play at home with this framework.
- Describe the school’s approach to teaching and assessing reading and literacy and how it is implemented in your classroom.
- Include a connection between the family and school as major components in a child’s microsystem.
- Explain how the framework will be implemented, including:
- The learning outcomes for children.
- The process and practices the children will experience both in the classroom and at home.
- How children will be assessed based on our state standards.
- How the program is or can be adapted to meet the needs of all families.
- How you will maintain communication and collaboration with them about the program (for example, emails, letters, face to face meetings, zoom meetings).
- Create resources that parents and guardians can use to support the program, including:
- A parent/guardian checklist to guide literacy practices at home.
- An evaluation form for the School and Family Literacy Program that parents will complete at the end of year.
- A resource for parents understanding literacy expectations. (Note: Minnesota Standards Family Guide (in the Week 4: Instructional ResourcesLinks to an external site. reading list) or a resource from your current state.)
