My Gold Award Project

A reading program for 2-10 year olds called This Wonderful Thing Called Reading

  • Goal: develop & enhance a child's love for reading by sharing the wonder of reading with them

    • Ensure a child understands how to find books they love​

    • Improve reading skills

    • Make children excited to read at home & at school and see reading as fun

    • Help children work beyond their struggles 

  • Provide a place for parents where their child can be read to if they have trouble finding time to read to them at home or want them to read 

​

How does the program work?

I can read to your child, they can read to me, or read the books I provide then in a fun way, I will ask them questions about what was read or do comprehension activities with them and also work on skills such as pronunciation and vocabulary as well as any struggles you mentioned
