Thanks to all of the families who have attended the classes and helped make the curriculum worthwhile for them and future families. Thanks also for the testing of both the “Child Number Book” and the “Parent Book” in the 2007 Fall Session.

I would also like to thank the workshop test sites namely:

• Literacy Link South Central, Tamara Kaattari (London, ON)
• Communities 4 Families, The Downtown Parent Child Coalition, Judy Baker (Winnipeg, MN)
• ALSO, Kim Oastler, Isobel Bisby (Ottawa, ON)
• AECEO at Superior Chidren’s Centre, Marilyn Perkovitch-Farand, (Wawa, ON)
• AECEO at Sault College, Marilyn Perkovitch-Farand, (Sault Ste Marie, ON)

These partners promoted the workshops and allowed their practitioners to experience GSL as well as evaluate it.

Finally, I would like to acknowledge and thank Anne Ramsay for being the architect and project manager of the Get Set Learn program. She was also the project manager on this project. Without her vision, this project would not have come to fruition.

Sincerely,

Lorri Sauvé
Get Set Learn Program Coordinator
