This week we visited the preschool room again to share our quiet reading time with younger buddies. Students look forward to this visit each week. They love entering into a new space, especially once with so many engaging toys and activities, and they also enjoy sharing laughs and imagination with younger students. Reading with younger students helps our 3/4s to build many skills. Through introducing themselves and finding a quiet spot to read, students build interpersonal skills, they learn how to become mentors who care and look out for others, and how to be role models. Through reading aloud, students not only get practice in their public speaking, but they learn how to create an engaging experience, build their reading comprehension, and synthesize illustrations with text.
