Read, Write & Type!™ Research Results:
Family Literacy Project

The Family Literacy Project, funded by the Knight Foundation, informally explored the effectiveness of Read, Write & Type!™ with children and adults learning English as a second language. First and second graders used their new Read, Write & Type!™ skills to help an adult family member learn English. A group of Vietnamese families and a group of Hispanic families participated for two nights a week in four 6-week sessions. This project was not designed to collect formal data, but both the adults and children found it very enjoyable. There were waiting lists for each session.
