I now have a regular Tuesday gig... I am a SMART (Start Making a Reader Today) volunteer at Sunnyside Environmental School. Every Tuesday afternoon, I go to Sunnyside and read with students for an hour.
This was my first week. I started with a little training and orientation then got straight to the work. I worked with a kindergartner for 30 minutes... he read a bit and I read a bit. We read Bark, George and Six Dinner Sid and a book about an ogre. He loved to tell me to read faster. The second half hour I worked with a first grade girl who told me all about her High School Musical valentines and the time she saw the tooth fairy.
Ah to be young...
