Here's how it's done... |
This August we had our first "Story Hour" where our sponsored students read children's books to the young neighborhood children.
Since the concept of reading to small children is a new one in the community I'm serving, we had a practice session, where I gave an example of reading aloud. We then had each student practice by passing a book around and everyone taking a page in the story.
Then on Friday afternoons, the students read in pairs to groups of children from the neighborhood. It was a win-win that we'll do again.
