Helping Kids Succeed in Providence Public Schools
Zoom Video Conference | Available (Membership Required)
Do you enjoy helping kids learn? Here’s a two-hour Zoom program to help you decide if you would like to join other Lifelong Learning Collaborative members in helping students at Veazie Street School improve their reading or math skills.
The session will describe the process of working with learning coaches and teachers at the school, including an explanation of what is involved in meeting with small groups of students in grades 2 through 5, to help them build skills. You will gain insights into paying attention to different learning styles and the importance of social/emotional learning. There is a concise and clear instruction booklet for everyone who completes the program and guidance on completing the necessary forms to take part as a tutor at the school.
