​Come Read with Me is an interactive workshop hosted by One to One Literacy and offered at no charge to parent/caregivers of Dr. A.R. Lord students in the primary grades. It is an opportunity for parents to learn positive reading strategies to support their children at home  (choose to attend the online seminar on either May 26th or Jun 2nd)

These pandemic times have been challenging for many parents and teachers. As a result, your child(ren) may benefit from extra support on their way to becoming confident, joyful readers. The Come Read with Me workshop can support you by equipping you with the knowledge, strategies, and inspiration you need to get reading with your kids.
There is no cost to participate and you will receive a digital resource package including a handbook for parents called “Reading Success at Home”. This program has been made available to families in British Columbia through the generous support of our donors.
