Reading to Dogs is a reading program designed to improve children's reading skills.
Read aloud to a registered/certified therapy dog from Therapy Dogs International, Chapter 205.
You must register to participate!
Kids in Grade 1-4 who register will have a 15 minute VIRTUAL session via Zoom with a dog of their choice.
Why read to a dog? Because dogs are friendly and comfy, judgement-free (no pressure!), and they love the attention of being read to.
Kids will gain more confidence in their reading aloud skills, and enjoy the company of a new friend.
We will continue to conduct our sessions virtually via Zoom starting on October 8, 2020.
Here is our schedule:
October 22, 2020, 3:00-4:00 PM: Murray and handler Liz
November 5, 2020, 3:00-4:00 PM, Lily and handler Liz
November 19, 2020, 3:00-4:00 PM, Mr. T and handler Nancy
If you would like more information, or to register for a virtual session with one of our dogs this September, please call me at the library. Thank you.
Meet our dogs!
