The free READ*WRITE*NOW! activity poster for children K-6 is now available. It makes a great take-home gift for students and families to use over spring vacation. Tutors working with young readers and after-school programs can use it to help children practice reading and writing skills. (In one activity, students write book reviews that are published on the America Reads website.) It's available in English and Spanish. To order, call toll-free (877) 4ED-PUBS or order online at http://www.ed.gov/pubs/edpubs.html (and search for "Read Write Now"). The activities can be seen at the America Reads website:
