The Three Principles of READ

Books And Training Always Go Together: South African teachers did not grow up with books so they have little experience in using books in the classroom. Training must accompany book provision to ensure that materials are correctly used. Training alone is not enough as most South African classrooms are under-resourced. The Right Book, At the Right Level, At the Right T

ime: Rigorous and careful book selection from local and international publishers is essential. Children can only be motivated to read if the books they have access to are relevant to their environment and appropriate to their reading level. Variety Encourages Reading: Exposure to a variety of texts and genres is critical to ensure that children are able to read for both pleasure and study purposes.

SEPTEMBER IS LITERACY MONTH!

Read Today. Lead Tomorrow.

This September, READ Educational Trust joins the world in celebrating the transformative power of literacy.

Literacy opens doors. It builds confidence, creates opportunities and gives children the skills they need to imagine and build a better future.

Our commitment is simple: empower learners, equip educators, engage communities and create sustainable impact for a better future.

Throughout the month, we will Talk. Read. Share. Inspire. We will be creating awareness around the importance of literacy and encouraging collective action to build a culture of reading.

Because when we invest in literacy, we invest in possibility.

Every reader. Every home. Every community.

Read Today. Lead Tomorrow.
