Reading Is Fundamental Breath Bag & Book Give-away
D ue to the COVID-19 Global Pandemic, Our Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) Program was unable to implement our traditional Book Give-away at James C. Wright Middle School. However, we were able to distribute, in July 2021, the “Breath Book and Bag Project” to students participating in the CGW Woodson Boys Club Black Excellence Mentoring Program. The “Breath Book and Bag” is a culturally relevant “school in backpack” that introduces (Kthrough12th grades) to age appropriate, theme related content area activities including reading, math, science, social studies,
and art/creative expression. The “Breath Book and Bag” activities are innovative and informative ways for families, teachers, and caregivers to “share and prepare” children for school readiness and facilitate access to additional learning opportunities to enhance students’ mastery of academic content. The activities demonstrate models of school success using culturally relevant learning experiences. The bags contain specific African American
theme related materials for families/adults to reach and teach at
