圣路易斯Nine PBS获联邦「Ready To Learn」新拨款：组建「日常读写联盟」面向2至8岁儿童，五年期将推新学前节目与90余项学习资源
密苏里州圣路易斯市消息—圣路易斯地区公共媒体机构 Nine PBS 于 11 月 9 日宣布获得联邦「Ready To Learn」（预备学习）新一轮拨款，用于帮助幼儿建立阅读能力，并为家长、照护者与教育工作者提供支持工具。
「Ready To Learn」是美国教育部的拨款计划，资助制作有研究依据的高质量教育节目与资源，改善 2 至 8 岁儿童的早期学习成果，重点面向低收入家庭儿童。Nine PBS 本次获选承接的拨款由美国卫生与公众服务部代表教育部管理，将组建名为「日常读写联盟」（Everyday Literacy Alliance）的全国性倡议。
拨款将支持四项内容：将 Nine PBS 获奖节目《Teaching in Room Nine》推广至全国；与 Fred Rogers Productions 合作开发面向学龄前儿童的新节目《Fredosaurus Rex》，以故事与音乐帮助儿童建立基础阅读能力；推出 E-Line Media 开发的免费互动共读平台「Read It, See It」；以及推出 90 余项新的学习资源与体验，包括数字工具、图书与博物馆项目。倡议先在圣路易斯市试点完善，再经各地公共电视台与社区伙伴推广至全国；五年拨款期结束时，目标为每年触达数百万名儿童、覆盖数千个教育场景，重点面向服务不足、低收入及城乡社区。
Nine PBS 指出，全国最近一次国家教育进展评估（NAEP）显示，近七成四年级学生阅读未达熟练水平；而三年级结束时能熟练阅读是后续学业成就、毕业与就业的重要预测指标。该机构同时表示，上一轮「Ready To Learn」拨款去年曾被突然终止，当时 28 个州与华盛顿特区的 44 家公共媒体机构被迫停止由拨款支持的社区教育活动。
St. Louis Nine PBS Wins New Federal Ready To Learn Grant: Everyday Literacy Alliance for Ages 2 to 8, With a New Preschool Show and More Than 90 Resources Over Five Years
St. Louis, Missouri — Nine PBS, the Saint Louis Regional Public Media organization, announced on November 9 that it has been awarded a new federal Ready To Learn grant to help young children build reading skills and to give parents, caregivers and educators tools to support their learning.
Ready To Learn is a U.S. Department of Education grant program that funds the creation of high-quality, research-backed educational shows and resources that improve early learning outcomes for children ages 2 to 8, especially from low-income families. Nine PBS was chosen to receive the grant, administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on behalf of the Department of Education, to form the Everyday Literacy Alliance, a national initiative to strengthen young children's reading skills.
The grant will fund four components: expanding Nine PBS's award-winning program Teaching in Room Nine nationwide; a new show for preschool-aged children, Fredosaurus Rex, developed with Fred Rogers Productions, using storytelling and music to build foundational reading skills; Read It, See It (RiSi), a free interactive shared-reading platform from E-Line Media; and more than 90 new learning resources and experiences, including digital tools, books and museum-based programs. The initiative will begin in St. Louis, where Nine PBS and its partners will test and refine the programs before sharing them nationwide through local public television stations and community partners. By the end of the five-year grant period, the initiative is expected to reach millions of children annually across thousands of educational settings, with a focus on underserved, low-income, and rural and urban communities.
Nine PBS noted that nearly 7 in 10 fourth graders nationwide scored below a proficient level on the most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress, and that reading proficiently by the end of third grade is one of the strongest predictors of later academic achievement and graduation. The organization also said the award follows the abrupt termination of the previous Ready To Learn grant last year, which forced 44 public media stations in 28 states and the District of Columbia to stop grant-funded community educational activities.
