SCORES of Region Two learners gathered at the Department of Education’s Regional Literacy Unit Exposition on Friday to witness an array of creative learning tools designed to enhance classroom learning.

Regional Literacy Officer Ronald Ragoobeer explained that the event was part of the region’s Education Month activities. The aim of the exposition was to promote reading and writing, with learners actively participating in activities such as writing and drawing at various booths.

Teachers from both the primary and nursery levels showcased creative and innovative teaching aids designed to positively impact classroom learning.
Ragoobeer emphasised that children have the potential to learn and write, and when teachers employ creativity, it can significantly boost this potential.

He also highlighted that greater efforts will be made to further improve literacy in the region.

This was the first event of its kind in Region Two, and Ragoobeer expressed hope that teachers would continue to be inventive in the classroom so as to inspire learners.

He noted that children were using paintbrushes to create their own stories, adding a hands-on, artistic element to literacy development. Throughout the exposition, children were excited to explore the booths, which featured a variety of creative displays aimed at fostering a love for reading and writing.
