The Read with Me <\/strong>project has spread out to regions beyond the borders of Iran in order to bring its motto into practice: \u201cAll children have the right to read quality books\u201d. The project has started its activities in Mazar-e-Sharif by the cooperation of the Future for Afghanistan children organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

After sending the first set of quality books to this region, since December 2016, RWM<\/strong> Reading Aloud sessions have been held for the children covered by this organization. Currently, two centers in Mazar-e-Sharif are holding Reading Aloud sessions. In these sessions, two trained tutors try to share the joy of reading and literature with the deprived children of this region. According to the needs of this region, the RWM <\/strong>authorities along with the Future for Afghanistan children organization<\/em> are hoping to improve the basic literacy of these children, teach them different skills, develop their living values and empower them to overcome difficulties and to build a society free from violence.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"Children<\/a><\/p>\n

The project covers children from preschool to second grade of Elementary School in Mazar-e-Sharif and nearby towns. In the first round, over 500 selected quality books, 50 \u201cBasic Literacy Improvement through Literature\u201d packages and 80 educational books for teachers and tutors along with different book-related activities and handbooks were sent to this region by the financial support of the Fund for Education & Empowerment of Working Children. <\/em><\/p>\n

In the last weeks of September 2016, the manager of Future for Afghanistan children organization, <\/em>Maryam Karimi, with two other tutors from Mazar-e-Sharif travelled to Iran and participated in Read with Me<\/strong> workshops including: \u201cChildren\u2019s Literature and Quality Books\u201d, \u201cStory Elements\u201d, \u201cReading Aloud\u201d and \u201cRole Playing, Facial and Body Expressions\u201d and Basic Literacy Workshops including: \u201cLearning Sounds\u201d, \u201cLearning Alphabet\u201d, \u201cThe Dictionary of Riddles\u201d and \u201cLearning Math\u201d. These trained tutors are supposed to familiarize other tutors and volunteers with the Read with Me<\/strong> project and its methods.<\/p>\n
