GIRLStart Parent Sharing

Last night was Parent Sharing for the GIRLStart literacy program.

Girls read poetry written in the class.  Ms. Mara did a read aloud of Lily’s Purple Plastic Purse (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku3XR0XVXC4) and then each girl (and some of the moms!) decorated her own purse.  Ms. Tess, GIRLStart coordinator, had a slide show of the semester’s GIRLStart activities and Ms. Kim, our evaluator, did some one-on-one parent meetings to discuss classroom progress.
