How can teachers promote community involvement in literacy activities?

  1. By keeping all literacy activities strictly school-based.

  2. By organizing community service projects unrelated to literacy.

  3. By sharing free story time events, partnering with public libraries, and involving community members.

  4. By relying solely on parents to read to children.

The correct answer is: By sharing free story time events, partnering with public libraries, and involving community members.

To promote community involvement in literacy activities, teachers should not keep all literacy activities strictly school-based, as this limits the participation of community members who may not have children in school. Organizing community service projects unrelated to literacy will not necessarily encourage community involvement in literacy activities. Relying solely on parents to read to children also limits the involvement of other community members who may not be parents. Therefore, the best option is to share free story time events, partner with public libraries, and involve community members to encourage a wider community participation and support for literacy.
