Community Education Implements MN Reading Corps Program

The Minnesota Reading Corps program is built around the "Big 5" learning opportunities: Conversation and Oral Language, Alphabetic Knowledge, Book and Print Rules, Phonological Awareness, and Vocabulary and Meaning. Delano Community Education is implementing the SEEDS of Early Literacy methods in Wee Tiger Preschool and Tiger Kids Club Pre-K classrooms. Research has shown that children need to know 10,000 to 12,000 words to be successful readers. Our teachers are very enthusiastic about the impact this curriculum is having on students already!
