Liberia

EGRA Plus in Liberia Liberia began an early grade reading intervention, called EGRA Plus: Liberia, in 2008. By the end of the project in 2010, students' reading performance had nearly tripled. This video shows that large improvements in reading are possible on a relatively fast schedule. At the same time, there are many children in Liberia who still can't read. Now that there is proof that reading can be improved in short periods of time, this video calls for urgent attention to this issue and provides a few tips to parents as to what they can do to assist teachers in improving their children's reading performance.
