WRITE Now! at Duke University

January 29th, 2008 by Nicole T. · No Comments · Literacy

In celebration of National Literacy Action Week (NLAW) 2008, the Community Service Center at Duke University is hosting a WRITE Now! project with fourth graders at Carter Community School.  Tutors are working with students to showcase how writing can be a vehicle for awareness. They will also write a letter to the Editor of the local newspaper, in which they will emphasize the important role tutoring plays in boosting confidence and academic success.  The Community Service Center is also sponsoring a training session to help campus tutors inspire children and youth to write.
