Empowering Multilingual Families with Engaging Literacy Resources

Research consistently shows that children's literacy skills significantly improve when families engage in regular reading activities together. 

At Just Right Reader, our commitment to accelerating student achievement extends beyond the classroom. We support districts and schools in fostering strong school-to-home partnerships, understanding that family engagement is fundamental for literacy success.

Acknowledging the pivotal role that language plays in learning to read, we tailored our resources to support and celebrate the linguistic diversity of our communities. 

Families support literacy development and learn alongside their children by scanning the QR code on each decodable to watch a fun, short phonics lesson.  These lessons get students excited about reading while  reinforcing the phonics skills in the book. 

By providing phonics video lessons in multiple languages, we are removing barriers to literacy, allowing parents and caregivers to play an active role in their children’s literacy journey. This innovative feature ensures learning is not only accessible but personalized.
