Is discipline an issue in your home or classroom?  Would you like to be more prepared when behavior problems arise?  Family Literacy Center will present a workshop on discipline and learning disabilities.  Do you ever have days when the kids seem totally out of control?  Do you find yourself falling into the same pointless argument with your students or your children?  Learn strategies for improving your child’s behavior at this 90 minute workshop titled “When The Chips Are Down”.

Host Richard Lavoie, a nationally-known expert on learning disabilities, offers practical advice on dealing with behavioral problems quickly and effectively.  He shows how preventive discipline can anticipate many problems before they start.  And he explains how teachers and parent can create a stable, predictable environment in which children can flourish.

This workshop is full of great information offered at no cost to you!  The workshop will be held on

Thanks to our partnership with the Lapeer District Library and other funders, we were able to offer Playgroups for families with young children. This program targets children from birth to age 5 and their parents. At playgroups, we facilitate learning and developmental activities while having fun. The program includes activities in a structured and predictable manner which help develop critical skills for young children. This group meets once a week for six weeks. Spots fill up fast so register today!

Kindergarten Readiness was a new program we offered in 2009 funded through a Great Parents and Great Start Lapeer grant. This program offers information, instructional materials and books to 4 and 5 year olds preparing for kindergarten and their parents. Families were able to try out activities which demonstrate if a child has critical school readiness skills. Parent evaluations were extremely positive for this pilot program, and we hope to be able to offer this program long into the future.
