episode The Role of Books and Reading in Addressing Mental Health in Military Families cover

The Role of Books and Reading in Addressing Mental Health in Military Families

In this episode of the Ready for Reading podcast, host Penney Letrud-Samons discusses the role of literacy in the recovery journey of military personnel and their families. She is joined by award-winning author and filmmaker David Barclay Moore and licensed clinical social worker Crystal Bettenhausen-Bubulka LCSW, MSG. They explore the importance of promoting mental health awareness and breaking the stigma surrounding it, especially in the military community. David shares insights from his book Boyogi, which addresses invisible wounds and the need for mental wellness advocacy. Crystal discusses her journey into the mental health field and the importance of normalizing discussions about mental health. Books play a crucial role in teaching resilience and coping skills to children. They serve as mirrors, reflecting our experiences and identities, and as windows, offering glimpses into different cultures and perspectives. Reading allows children to escape, learn, and develop empathy. Books can help normalize challenges and celebrate failure, teaching children that mistakes and trials are growth opportunities. Reading also strengthens bonds between parents and children, fostering healthy relationships and connections. United Through Reading facilitates this bonding through reading, especially for military families who may be geographically separated.

episode From Decoding to Comprehension: How Reading Aloud Empowers Emergent Readers cover

From Decoding to Comprehension: How Reading Aloud Empowers Emergent Readers

In this episode, our host, Penney Letrud-Samons, speaks with United Through Reading's Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships, Molly Haskin, MS CCC-SLP, to discuss the importance of reading aloud and its impact on comprehension. They introduce the concept of P.I.E. and how it relates to reading: * Promotes brain development * Improves language and learning skills * Encourages a positive association with literacy) as the critical ingredient for successful reading. They also explore the traditional reading-aloud experience in the classroom and the challenges emergent readers face in comprehension. Mrs. Haskin shares best standard practices for reading, including playing with sounds and reading together. They highlight how United Through Reading supports literacy in military families and provides resources for parents and children. Mrs. Haskin received her Master of Science in Communication, Speech, and Hearing Disorders from East Carolina University. She has practiced in her field for ten years and finds the development of early childhood literacy skills a specific area of interest. As a United Through Reading Programs team member, Mrs. Haskin facilitates program distribution and implementation to Army, Air Force, and Space Force commands worldwide. By disseminating the program across commands, she maximizes the number of Soldiers benefitting from the program to ultimately increase connections for military families affected by service-related time apart.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
