October

Mid-Prairie's English Language Learning teamed up with Kalona Public Library again to host Multilingual Literacy Day. The goal was to get elementary students into the public library and prepped for summer reading! The presentation for parents shared about the importance and benefits of supporting a child's multilingual strengths. Each student also received a book in their home language: Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, or Nepali!
