Literacy Center: The Early Childhood Education Network
The LiteracyCenter.Net™: The Early Childhood Education Network™ Inc. is a research and development activity of FamiliarTales® Inc.
According to research conducted by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NIHHD), American children are not receiving the foundation they need to master basic skills. While their global counterparts are excelling at math, science, and the adoption of multiple languages, the majority of American children are having trouble learning to read English. The Nation's Report Card: Fourth-Grade Reading 2000, released by the US Department of Education on April 6 2001, states that less than one third of the nation's fourth-grade students are proficient at reading. The results also pointed to a widening gap between the best and worst readers. Education Secretary Roderick Paige cited the new data as evidence that federal education policy has not addressed the needs of low-achieving students. " After decades of business-as-usual school reform, too many of our nation's children still cannot read," said Secretary Paige.
It is the mission of the LiteracyCenter.Net to make certain that no child is left behind because of a lack of high-quality education material. It is its goal to provide a new Web-based platform for Daycare, Preschool, First-grade, and Second-grade teachers that simplifies their lives and provides their students with the best in Web-based education.

MathMagic is a K-12 telecommunications project developed in El Paso, Texas by Alan A. Hodson. It provides strong motivation for students to use computer technology while increasing problem-solving strategies and communications skills. MathMagic posts challenges in each of four categories (k-3, 4-6, 7-9 and 10-12) to trigger each registered team to pair up with another team and engage in a problem-solving dialog. When an agreement has been reached, one solution is posted for every pair.
MathMagic has received wide ideological acceptance by hundreds of past FidoNet users (spearheaded by Carol Hooper), because it addresses most of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards. A modified format expanded into the Internet and has been available via regular e-mail or via the World Wide Web (WWW) since 1993.

Detailed passenger list of the Mayflower, a look at its history and the crew who piloted it, clothing and weapons of the Pilgrims, and common Mayflower myths
Mathematics is a live science with new discoveries being made every day. The frontier of mathematics is an exciting place, where mathematicians experiment and play with creative and imaginative ideas. Many of these ideas are accessible to young children. Others (infinity is a good example) are ideas that have already piqued many children's curiosity, but their profound mathematical importance is not widely known or understood. The MegaMath project is intended to bring unusual and important mathematical ideas to elementary school classrooms so that young people and their teachers can think about them together.

National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP)
The National Association of Elementary School Principals was founded in 1921 by a group of principals who sought to promote their profession and to provide a national forum for their ideas. Over the past 79 years, NAESP has grown to become the most powerful voice of Pre-K-8 principals across the United States and around the world.
Since its beginning, NAESP has been dedicated to ensuring that all children get the best education possible.

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), also known as "the Nation's Report Card," is the only nationally representative and continuing assessment of what America's students know and can do in various subject areas. Since 1969, assessments have been conducted periodically in reading, mathematics, science, writing, U.S. history, civics, geography, and the arts.
Under the current structure, the Commissioner of Education Statistics, who heads the National Center for Education Statistics in the U.S. Department of Education, is responsible by law for carrying out the NAEP project. The National Assessment Governing Board, appointed by the Secretary of Education but independent of the department, governs the program.
NAEP does not provide scores for individual students or schools; instead, it offers results regarding subject-matter achievement, instructional experiences, and school environment for populations of students (e.g., fourth-graders) and subgroups of those populations (e.g., female students, Hispanic students). NAEP results are based on a sample of student populations of interest.

NEA Foundation for the Improvement of Education (NFIE)
NFIE envisions a future in which public education in America provides all of its students with a world-class education. Created by the National Education Association in 1969, NFIE empowers public education employees to innovate, take risks, and become agents for change to improve teaching and learning in our society. The foundation awards grants to educators who propose innovative and promising ways to help all students experience academic success and reach their full potential, especially those who have been historically underserved by society's institutions. NFIE conducts research on these efforts and publishes reports on its findings.
The foundation believes that students' success depends on what teachers know and can do. The focus of NFIE's programs, therefore, is two-fold. First, NFIE seeks to ensure that the three million teachers in the nation's public schools have opportunities throughout their careers to keep up to date with new knowledge, new technology, an ever-changing society, and changing expectations for what all students should know. Through its programs, the foundation works to weave continuous learning into the fabric of teaching. Second, NFIE's programs are designed to identify those educators who do the extraordinary in serving their students and their profession, to provide them with the means to explore their best ideas, and to support them as role models for their colleagues.

PencilFlag.com is a free site that began shortly after the 9/11 attack on
the World Trade Center.
The idea was simple - to create a memorial flag that could be
accessible to everyone, one that could be downloaded from computers and
attached to something everyone has - a pencil.
The response was overwhelming and mostly from schools and daycares. It
seemed that the "Remember" pencil flag was helping children cope with the
events by utilizing their creativity and at the same time promoting
discussion.
Since then the little "Remember" pencil flag has been all over the world and
their website enjoys thousands of visitors each month. They currently offer
other pencil flags as well: "Fun Flags," "Holiday Flags," "Occasion
Flags," and "Specialty Flags." One of the most popular is “The Love Garden”
pencil flag, created with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in mind.

Pitsco, Inc. was founded in 1971 by three industrial arts teachers who realized a need for technical and curriculum support in the industrial arts education field. With an initial investment of only $50, Harvey Dean, Max Lundquest, and Terry Salmans operated the fledgling company on evenings and weekends during the next four years. In June of 1975, Harvey Dean dedicated himself full time to the company after purchasing Lundquest's and Salmans' shares, and by the end of the year, Dean, his wife, Sharon, and two part-time employees comprised the entire Pitsco staff. Pitsco has continued to grow and devote itself to technical education, and today includes sales in all 50 states, Canada, and several foreign countries.

Valerie Fischer Hardy is a highly experienced teacher successfully dealing with children having reading problems. Thirty years teaching every grade from Pre-K to eighth has given her the ability to deal with different learning needs, personalities and attitudes. She has discovered that each child learns in a different manner, and every child is a unique challenge. This understanding and challenge motivated Mrs. Hardy to develop Quick Start Reading. She started out with a program she called: Parent Power (a once a week Parent/Child /Teacher workshop). Through this program the average child made two years of progress in one year. By incorporating Parent Power into a home learning kit Mrs. Hardy has developed Quick Start Reading. She would like to share her techniques with the entire learning world and make reading fun and easy!

A project of the National Education Association (NEA).
Today we should have 98% of students reading on grade
level by the end of second grade. By addressing the needs of a child early on,
we can prevent reading failure. Reading and reading disabilities are major
topics of concern to the public and do constitute a public health crisis in this
nation.
Teachers must be taught how to implement phonemic
awareness and decoding skills into their classrooms. They also must be
instructed on how to identify and work with children who need intense
instruction at an early age. The underlying core deficit in comprehension is the
segmenting of words. A child unable to process the sounds in words will have a
difficult time segmenting. Without the ability to decode with automaticity,
accuracy, and fluency, comprehension will be difficult. Teaching all children to read has not really been
addressed by our country. There is a current push to address extrinsic issues
(e.g., poverty, single-parent homes, second language learners, drugs,
economically disadvantaged) in education. These issues are important but will not fix the current
crisis in reading instruction and acquisition. Only intrinsic factors such as
proper reading instruction will unlock the door to a literate workforce in the
21st Century.

family literacy programs that help prepare young children for reading and
motivate school-age children to read.
Through a national grassroots network that is expected to exceed 360,000 community
volunteers (parents, teachers, librarians, and others) by the end of this
year, RIF programs will provide new, free books and other essential literacy
resources to more than 5 million children and their families. RIF's highest
priority is the nation's neediest children from infancy to age 11. Many of the
children RIF serves have economic or learning needs that put them at risk of
failing to achieve basic educational goals. RIF serves children and families in every state, the District of Columbia,
and U.S. offshore territories in programs
that operate in schools, libraries, community centers, child-care centers, Head
Start and Even Start centers, hospitals, migrant worker camps, homeless
shelters, and detention centers. Today, thanks to public-private partnerships,
RIF is the nation's largest children's and family literacy organization. By the end of 2000, RIF will have placed 200 million books in the hands and
homes of America's children.

Web sites - properly constructed - are information systems. They efficiently
structure content to provide visitors with knowledge and insight. They deliver
"the goods."
Web sites may also serve as "interfaces" providing bridges and
translations to connect users to other wordly experiences. Given the sometimes
poorly organized resources available on the Web, a good school Web site helps
people find educationally worthwhile information with a minimum of wasted time
and wandering.

School Zone Publishing Company began as The School Zone Learning
Center in 1972. The Learning Center was a retail teachers' supply outlet,
specializing in sales to teachers, with two stores in Grand Rapids, Michigan. About 1974, schools instituted changes in educational methods
that affected the home and schools. Changes included introducing new teaching
methods in math and English and eliminating workbooks provided on a shared basis
for home use. With these changes, parents experienced difficulty finding
educational material for use at home. Local parents turned to the Learning Centers, requesting
workbooks and other at-home teaching aids. In response, the Centers formulated
six workbooks and printed 1,000 copies of each. The books sold out in six
months. An expanded workbook series was developed and received equally
enthusiastic acceptance. School Zone Publishing Company was incorporated in 1979. A new
line of workbooks had been written and illustrated by late 1979. In January
1980, the line was printed and School Zone began operations. Market response was
extremely favorable. The product line has expanded yearly and currently includes
almost two hundred educational products.
Everyone who has something to do with
a school, from administrators, service providers, educators, students and
parents, will find something useful here.
