Reading on the Pitch hosted its First Teacher Training Event!!!

Reading on the Pitch wants to thank Nil Plancton and Burcu Ayan for hosting our first teacher training at BoMoVu http://bomovu.org/ – an NGO based in Istanbul, Turkey.

BoMoVu believes “that access to physical activities is a right and should not be considered as a luxury reserved for the affluent or physically abled.” ROTP aligns with this mission and has teamed up with BoMoVu in accomplishing 4 main goals.
(1) BoMoVu will train Yusra Foundation, an NGO directly working with refugee children, based in Istanbul, Turkey, in the Reading on the Pitch curriculum.https://www.facebook.com/pg/yusracommunitycenter/about/?ref=page_internal
(2) The Reading on the Pitch curriculum will be implemented in the BoMoVu “Movement is Free” program that works directly with refugee children in Istanbul, Turkey.
(3) BoMoVu will work to connect with the Ministry of Education in Turkey to bring the ROTP curriculum into the school system.
(4) Together, ROTP and BoMoVu will work to translate the ROTP curriculum into Turkish.
