SCHOOL PROGRAMS

The Black Stallion Literacy Foundation
offers two school-based literacy programs
for elementary aged children:

FIRST GRADE: 6 & 7 Year Olds

The program introduces children in first grade to reading
their very own hardcover book, Little Black, A Pony. Each
child receives two hardcover Walter Farley books to start
or add to their own personal library. The program also
provides an exciting opportunity for children to learn
about and interact with live horses and the children
even have an opportunity to read to their favorite horse!

FOURTH-FIFTH GRADE: 9 to 11 Year Olds

The fourth-fifth grade program continues the legacy
of reading by providing all the children with their own
copy of The Black Stallion, a universally recognized
children’s classic. Children are also introduced to the
critically acclaimed 1979 movie of the same name.
The program concludes with the Black Stallion Literacy Show, featuring the Black Stallion himself!

This highly popular and effective program can be used with classes in fourth
grade or first semester of fifth grade.
