| Abstract: | Teachers at an elementary school in a working class neighborhood outside Houston, Texas, invited children and their parents to attend 10 Parent-Child Literacy Workshops held on Saturday mornings in spring 1994. Spanish and English speaking parents, together with their children, began each Saturday session by listening to their child read in the language of choice for 15 minutes in a soft tone. Parents were shown how to compute their child's oral reading rate. The children (including younger siblings) greatly enjoyed their "build up" readers--predictable, redundant, teacher-made books that start with a few words and build up by adding one word per page. After independent reading time, a short book was read and usually dramatized by the children in attendance. Each meeting's theme was reinforced with stories and songs. Each meeting modeled, demonstrated, and gave parents and children a chance to practice together a different comprehension strategy. A theme-related Bingo game (using vocabulary words taken from shared reading activities related to the theme) signaled the end of each meeting. At the end of the last meeting, parents and children expressed their gratitude for the opportunities they were given to sing, share, write, read, talk, and to create for 10 Saturdays a community of learners.
