College of Health Sciences receives its largest grant ever
The College of Health Sciences has received a $4 million “Early Reading First” grant from the U.S. Department of Education to fund the Wisconsin Reading Acquisition Program. It’s the largest research award received by the College of Health Sciences and the largest three-year research grant for Marquette.
WRAP is a collaboration between Marquette and Day Care Services for Children Inc., a Head Start agency, and will serve 300 at-risk, low-income 3- and 4-year-old children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. It is led by Drs. Maura Moyle and Brenda Gorman, assistant professors of speech and pathology, and Sue Berman, clinical instructor of speech pathology and audiology.
The grant supports literacy materials, professional development for teachers and a parent component that encourages vocabulary acquisition efforts at home. The goal is to improve children’s oral language, written language awareness, alphabet knowledge, verbal reasoning abilities, analytical thinking and English language skills.
