Some Kids and a Book and Me

My latest project is a biweekly reading group at the Soufriere Primary School. Last week I distributed announcements to the third and fourth grade classes inviting students to hear a story before school on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Expecting only a few students to show, I was delighted to find a group of more than 40 kids waiting for Tuesday’s reading. Today gathered only a few less with 37. We are reading Roald Dahl’s The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me in segments and enjoying every page. I was impressed today to see how well the children remembered what we read last week and look forward to the coming weeks of morning stories!
