2nd grade and pre-k have teamed up this year to start a new program called "reading buddies". The program is designed so students can develop relationships with other children outside their own classroom and to strengthen and develop reading skills (comprehension, voice, fluency, etc.). It is proven through research that the more children are read to, the better readers and writers they become (Fountas and Pinnell are two well-known professors that have researched this finding, find them on Google :)). Ladel is our school's comfort dog from the organization, Lutheran Church Charities. She is a service dog and has traveled all across the country bringing Christ's love to those that are in need. She is great! Enjoy the pictures :).
