Prime Time Preschool Reading
We are currently hosting the fall session of the PRIME TIME Preschool Reading Program, which fosters school readiness for children ages 3 to 5 and their families. This program creates enriching learning environments that emphasize the humanities and encourage family engagement.
Using beautifully illustrated, award-winning books featuring culturally diverse stories, PRIME TIME Preschool explores themes like caring, curiosity, and sustainability. These themes spark meaningful conversations among families in settings such as schools, libraries, and community centers. Families learn together with the guidance of trained site-based teams, supported by PRIME TIME staff, to deliver all aspects of the program.
How It Works
- FREE for children and their parents or caregivers
- 90-minute sessions at The Nehemiah Projects of Acadiana, once a week for six weeks
- Includes complimentary books for families and shared meals at Café on State
- Facilitators read award-winning children’s books with culturally diverse stories, folk tales, and historical accounts from around the world
- Discussion leaders guide participants to personally connect with literature and explore deeper concepts with open-ended questions inspiring critical thinking
- In Prime Time Preschool, a facilitator also leads children and families through center based activities to increase comprehension and school readiness
