Reading Partners Program
Dear members,
Outreach for a school district’s reading partners program was formed to raise the academic ability among the children. Reading a variety of books and other sources improves creativity and builds knowledge about the world. Reading skills are critical for children’s development since it helps to preserve cognitive capability among children. Reading also boosts the growth of the brain in children (Ross, 2017). It promotes critical thinking and develops higher-order reasoning.
The program will be involving children aged between 5 to 12 years, and the sessions will be held after school to not interfere with the school schedule. The sessions will be held twice a week, whereby each session will not take more than thirty minutes to create time for both the students and volunteers. The volunteers are supposed to familiarize themselves with reading goals in the sessions, including the learning behavior objectives, the book selection goals, and the study strategy goals. Also, in this session, volunteer teachers will be taken through the selected curriculum.
Reading is an essential tool that will enable young children to process information about characters, themes, and plot and decode words, resulting in help build comprehension skills. Teaching the children how to read not only benefits the children but also the society and the teachers. When you engage yourself with children when reading, it will help create a bond between you. This, in results, gives the children a sense of intimacy and well-being. This feeling of intimacy will make your children feel close to you. Children will develop a lifelong interest in reading after been taken through the reading process, and this, in return, will help the community to grow since its members will be educated individuals. Regardless of gender, race, and religion, the program is only interested in helping and teaching the children how to read. Teaching the children how to read has the results, which includes reading to improve the concentration in children. Reading will also help the children know the world around them, and again, in the end, the children will enhance vocabulary and language skills.
All the best,
Student name.
