Abstract

The goal of this MSED project is to create a Parent Literacy Night event to inform families at my school district of Woodburn of literacy practices they can use at home to support the literacy development of their students. In order to inform families at the Parent Literacy Night event I created a Bilingual Slideshow Presentation that highlights the importance of family involvement in literacy. Also, I created Literacy Stations for the Parent Literacy Night event in order to inform families of the literacy practices they can practice at home based on their student grade level. Additionally, each Literacy Station at the Parent Literacy Night event contained resources and materials I created for families that aligned to the literacy practice for that grade level. Last, this MSED project helped me grow as an educator and made me take a leadership role in my school as I developed a literacy event for the families in my district.
Key Words: Parent Literacy Night event, student literacy development, literacy practices, Bilingual Slideshow Presentation, Literacy Stations
