Melissa, I recently got a grant for parent/family involvement. I purchased take-home literacy games from the Frog Learning Company. The students take home the games to play with a family member. I will be implementing this program in the fall, and I believe it will be successful. It is a great way to involve family members while working on specific literacy skills.
