Help your child to improve their reading [] =**U-CAN READ**= U-CAN READ is dedicated to developing students literacy skills by providing parents and carers with ideas, knowledge and support. It is a joint project of the University of Canberra and ACT Department of Education and Training (DET). U-CAN READ was established to address the needs of struggling readers by educating parents in the use of reading strategies and ideas and an understanding of how children learn to read and write. U-CAN READ endorses current best practices in literacy interventions and includes a strong research component. Students experiencing reading difficulties in Years 3-10 and who are enrolled in ACT school are eligible to apply for the program. A referral from the Principal or school counsellor is required. There is a small fee for this service. See: [] Good for reviews:[] other good links are at:http://esandbox.wikispaces.com/Books
