SUMMARY:Reading Buddies
DESCRIPTION:Is your child in a reading slump? Would you like your child to 
 be more confident in reading? Bring them to Reading Buddies at Weaver 
 Library! Our adult volunteers from the community - recruited and trained by 
 youth services librarians - are here to listen to your child practice 
 reading one-on-one and help them through any hiccups. Building fluency and 
 vocabulary by reading high interest books and playing word games will help 
 bridge the gap between learning to read and reading to learn which becomes 
 more important as middle school approaches. Offering a non-judgmental space 
 to read aloud can help build confidence and fluency.\n\nThis drop-in 
 program is intended for children 7-10 and happens at Weaver Library every 
 Tuesday from 4:00pm-6:00pm starting September 17th. There will be 
 volunteers ready to listen to your child read for at least 20 minutes\, 
 with the option for more time if there are no other children waiting. If 
 all volunteers are busy when your child arrives\, there will be reading 
 games available to play.\n
