Reading Rockets is an educational initiative geared toward improving reading and language skills for kids via television programs and their interactive website. The flagship public television and radio station WETA spearheads the mission from Washington, D.C, as they intend to reverse the trend of language and reading proficiency in today's youth. Their award winning programs air on PBS to millions of people across the nation, and their website is a goldmine of information. Everything from A-Z is there, by way of blogs, articles, tips and more. Paid for by The U.S. Department of Education, the people at Reading Rockets clearly know how important it is to make learning to read fun. The colorful, easy to navigate site boasts language and grammar exercises, suggested reading material, and an on-site glossary among its resources for kids. There are sections for Parents, Teachers, Principals, Librarians, and more. Fans who want to know about their favorite authors can scour the videos and podcasts; their Meet The Experts and Meet The Author series's are personal and appealing to all age groups. Excerpts from their TV broadcasts are available online, and users can subscribe to the newsletter for periodic updates.
