In February, I started a Spring Reading Program. Volunteers and students signed up and we practiced reading by reading individually to an adult volunteer for 30 minutes then listening to a story read by a volunteer for 30 minutes. It was tricky at times when either students or volunteers did not show up but we managed somehow. Some students were already good readers but there were some who definitely benefited from this program. Even if it would have only helped one student, it was totally worth it. I'm hoping it instilled the habit of reading every day. Parents!!! You need to sit down with your child and let them read to you and you read to them EVERY DAY!!! This is tremendously important. There is no magic trick to it, just take the time!!!
