Just wrapped the school year and marked 2 years as ED of @TheReadingTeam. We moved into a new home, grew enrollment, saw strong ELA gains, raised record funds, and welcomed 7 new board members. Grateful for our team and all who make this work possible!

What’s the difference between vowels and consonants? It’s all in how you say it! Vowels are pronounced without obstructing the air to flow through the mouth. Consonants are made by releasing air and with the assistance of the tongue, lips or teeth.

It's the first day of fall and the children are back at work here at the Reading Team, becoming strong readers, writers, and speakers. Take a peek inside our classroom!

It's never been more important to find the right PCs for students — and to keep them connected. See how Intel is helping.

Through our free Book Distribution Program, our children get to select up to 20 books a year that they can keep. Since many of our children grow up in homes without books and no easy access to a library, this program is particularly impactful. #freebooks #dropeverythingandread

That #FridayFeeling when you tell supporters that 2018 donations provided @thereadingteam with funds to launch a new preschool program for 100 children ages 2-4 in 2 of Harlem’s poorest neighborhoods. Together we can do more in 2019. Give a gift today: worldofchildren.org/holiday2…
