(Kenya): .The new basic education activity will build on the success of the Tusome ("Let's Read" in Kiswahili) early grade reading program. It will expand interventions in English and Kiswahili for grades four to six throughout Kenya and help students in grades one to three reach higher levels of reading fluency through additional support. Using FY 2019 funds, activities may include teaching and learning materials development, technical assistance to Government of Kenya (GOK) officials, building the capacity of Kenyan publishing and printing companies, working with local youth organizations to promote a culture of reading, and a rigorous monitoring and evaluation platform to build the GOK capacity to assess student learning outcomes and use the data for decision and policy making. In support of Kenya's Journey to Self-Reliance, the new activity will build upon Tusome's strong foundation of host-country ownership, financing, and a long-term return on investment, as stated in the GOK's five-year Medium Term Plan. The new basic education activity will be co-designed with the GOK and other stakeholders to meet the priorities of Kenya's 2018-2022 National Education Sector Strategic
