What do a great-great-
grandmother, a mom and an
auntie have in common?
They all participated in a
mentoring "Reading Works”
class.
An open house will begin
another class term on Nov.
5 at the Portland M etro
Assembly of God Church
on N o rth e a st 6 th and
Alberta. The class will meet
twice a week for 18 weeks.
Reading Works helps stu­
dent of any age to learn to
read or to read better. It
costs $3.50 per session, but
if a parent or significant adult
participates with the stu­
dent, the cost is reduced.
Teacher Katy Libke with
her helper Connie Meyer
teach the class and train the
attending adults to assist.
“It helped me with my
sounds and how to pro­
nounce the words, so I don’t
have to keep on guessing,”
one of the students com­
mented.
The instruction blends a
sound and sight method with
a method called Spaulding.
The instruction help students
acquire the skills for recog­
nizing sounds formed by vari-
ous letter com binations,
called phonograms.
The program has proven
effective in giving students
the foundation they need to
improve reading and word
recognition skills— whether
child, youth, or adult.
The program was founded
by well qualified leaders.
Libke is a substitute teacher
in the P o rtla n d P ublic
Schools and has a Master of
Science degree in Educa­
tion. Meyer is a skilled read­
ing tutor previously em ­
p lo y ed by M u ltnom ah
County for teaching adults.
"Keeping it Fresh” is also
being offered this fall. It is a
fo llo w -u p
c o u rse
to
strengthen skills learned in
the Reading Works class
with a review of past mate­
rial and as well as further
development of skills.
If you're a great-grand­
mother, an aunt or an uncle, a
youth orayoungstudenL there's
a place for you in this program
— as a learner or as a helper!
Call Libke at 503-281-
8121 for more information,
to sign up for a course or to
help out with the classes
financially or in person.
