Awaken your child’s critical thinking skills using the right strategies with the right book to develop their literacy skills.
The Adventures of Josh and Monkey: Next Time I Will Obey! Curriculum
Our Mommy, Literacy, and Me™ program empowers parents and caretakers to awaken their child’s critical thinking skills and give them life-reading strategies for their future development. An overwhelming amount of data shows that there is a direct link between reading proficiency and home support for literacy. Schools are working strategically to ensure that every child can read, but the responsibility must be shared by the family.
The Mommy, Literacy, and Me™ program was created with this in mind. Our workshop shows parents how to make story time simple, fun, and impactful! Our primary curriculum is The Adventures of Josh and Monkey series. The Josh and Monkey positive character development books gradually embed low-to high-level questions within the text. As you read with your child, the book cues you to ask a logical progression of uniquely framed questions that are child-friendly, yet each is designed to stimulate deeper thinking and meaningful conversation.
In this interactive one-hour session, parents will improve the way they
ask purposeful questions;
check for accurate comprehension;
recognize readers’ reading shortfalls; and
employ strategies to help readers get back on track.
Give your child a head start and book your place on our Mommy, Literacy, and Me™ program now! Let your child experience active and reflective reading: connecting, aligning, analyzing, drawing conclusion, evaluating, and synthesizing ideas within the text. These essential skills are necessary for effective reading and emergent critical thinking.
