Reading and Tutoring

“Our goal is to support EARTHS by mentoring the kids, helping them cultivate confidence in their own skills and abilities,” saidCydcor Chief Operating Officer Vera Quinn. “Gaining the academic skills to succeed is just one part.

Literacy Kits

Cydcor team members and United Way of Venture County created 50 literary kits for EARTHS. The literacy kits were designed to improve reading comprehension through games, worksheets, and crafts.

The kits were so successful, the school requested the original files of the worksheet and habitat game so that they could be translated into Spanish for ESL students.
