WHAT ENDED OUR LITERACY PROGRAM? Gossip Hurts

Literacy is very important. In order to learn, children need to be literate. They need to read, write and understand.
Studies show that basic literacy skills are learned in a child's first years of school, but after Grade 3, children actually use those literacy skills to learn everything else.

There are many adults who have a literacy level below what is needed to cope with the demands of everyday life. We need to emphasize early literacy and ensure children get the best literacy foundation we can give them. We need to allocate resources and make literacy a priority.

Literacy is the ability to read and write one's own name
