Kinder Starts is intended for children scheduled to enter Kindergarten who participate together with parents/caregivers. This free program provides good information about how to support your child as they move into Kindergarten focusing on Literacy, Numeracy and Social. Families will learn playful ways to integrate learning into every day situations. This program is a wonderful way to make connections with others before starting the Kindergarten year.
What is Reading Recovery®?
Reading Recovery is a preventative early intervention program in developed by Dr. Marie Clay in the 1970’s in New Zealand. It is designed to dramatically reduce the number of Grade One students with literacy difficulties.
It is a preventative program, which intervenes early with intensive, daily, individual instruction to move the lowest achieving readers and writers into the average range.
Reading Recovery is provided in addition to classroom instruction, and can bring students to accepted literacy levels, in approximately 12-20 weeks, enabling students to continue learning within the classroom program.
The few children who may not be able to make the accelerated progress required to put them into the average range within 12-20 weeks are referred for longer term support.
The SWIS program provides information & orientation services to new immigrants and refugees in Langley. SWIS also provide needs assessments, action plans & holistic case management services to newcomers with limited English or other settlement needs.
