Literations

We’ve officially wrapped up our first week serving students at Kelly Elementary School in Chelsea Public Schools, and we couldn’t be more grateful! ???? A huge thank you to Principal Lisa Lineweaver for the incredibly warm welcome and support. The enthusiasm from the students, staff, and community has been truly inspiring. During #AmeriCorpsWeek, we’d also like to show our gratitude for the unwavering support of AARP Experience Corp and the shared belief in the power of older adult volunteers as literacy coaches and mentors for students in grades 1-4. ???? #AmeriCorpsWeek

Yesterday, we had an inspiring Youth Mentoring Day 2025 at the Massachusetts State House! ??? We were proud to join young people, mentoring programs, state legislators, and policymakers to advocate for greater investment in mentoring across Massachusetts. #YouthMentoringDay #YMD2025 #BuildingTheMentoringMovement Mass Mentoring Partnership

We're so grateful to the Highland Street Foundation for 17 years of unwavering support! Their commitment has been instrumental in closing the literacy gap and providing intergenerational mentorship opportunities for our students. We look forward to continuing our partnership to create lasting change!

We’re kicking off National Reading Month with our expansion into Chelsea Public Schools! This week, our volunteers are getting oriented at Kelly Elementary School and meeting their students for the first time. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the power of reading and connection! We’re excited to begin this journey in Chelsea and can’t wait to see the impact our volunteers will make. Stay tuned! #Literations #ReadAcrossAmerica #ChelseaPublicSchools #NationalReadingMonth

At Literations, we maximize 30-minute structured sessions to support young readers with: ? Engaging, supportive literacy activities ?? ? A beautiful read-aloud story, chosen by the student! ?? By letting students select their own read-aloud at the end, we reinforce the joy of storytelling, creating a fun and meaningful reading experience ??

Did you know Literations doesn’t just serve in public schools? We also partner with three Boys and Girls Clubs of Boston to support young readers! ???? After school, students meet with our amazing literacy coaches for 30-minute reading sessions, building confidence, strengthening skills, and discovering the joy of reading. ?? #Literations #BoysAndGirlsClubs #ReadingMentors #ScienceofReading #LiteracyMatters

While our students are enjoying their February break, we're busy bees ?? getting ready for our big launch at Chelsea Public Schools in just TWO weeks! We're organizing materials, connecting with school leaders, and prepping our literacy coaches for preservice training. Get ready, Chelsea ??
