This literacy project deals with 6-year-old students that have engaged in the first year of Public Elementary Schools in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in the south of Brazil. Aiming to evaluate the reading, writing and math skills achieved by the students, an experimental model was designed. This model divided the students into four groups, where three of them took part in learning activities conducted by three different institutions, and the fourth, called group of control, took part in activities conducted by the schools themselves. The results of the activities were presented on a reading, writing and math proficiency scale and it showed the development of the students' performance at the end of their first year of school. The main outcome showed that the results of the three groups of intervention were better than the results of the control group in reading and writing and there was no difference in mathematics. A measure of the socioeconomic level of the schools was built and no difference in distribution was found.
