Coleen Thayer’s proposal received a $500 award to enhance the current Parent Resource Group activities by expanding the lending library with some signed, visual storyreading videotapes and books. The videos and corresponding books will encourage bilingual literacy a home. Videos are professionally created by the Kansas School for the Deaf. Books will be purchased either used or new. Materials are rated as appropriate for various age levels. Evaluation will include a parent survey and use of the Kendall benchmarks. (Note: Unfortunately, this project was eliminated due to staffing cuts.)
