• The Mississippi Department of Education’s website provides information to parents on current news and events related to education. Each department has a page where resources are archived for the public. Visit the Literacy page for additional resources and ideas on how to support your child in his/her reading development.

    From 2004 to 2008, a team of teachers at The Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR) collected ideas and created Student Center Activities for use in kindergarten through fifth grade classrooms. Accompanying these Student Center Activities is a Teacher Resource Guide that offers important insights on differentiated instruction and how to use the Student Center materials. Visit FCRR Student Center Activities page to make print copies of the Student Center Activities
