Reading Buddies

Tuesdays from 4 – 5 pm

Your child will increase their fluency and comprehension by reading aloud to a Reading Buddy (volunteer) for 20-30 minutes each week. Interactions support pronunciation assistance, vocabulary development, inspire confidence, and comprehension skills. After reading, stay with your new buddies for a word game or two!
