A Wonderful Week!

We had a wonderful week of learning and growing in reading, writing and literacy!

The children are making great progress.

We would like to welcome all of the wonderful Reading Therapy Dogs and their owners to Jefferson!  They began their visits this month in our "Children Reading to Dogs" program.  The children look forward to seeing the dogs in our school.
We appreciate the visits so much!  Children are practicing reading skills and learning kindness, compassion and respect for a dog.  The children and dogs share a story in a relaxing environment.  Children's reading skills and confidence grows.  :)

Some recommended book titles including the theme Nature/Seasons to look for when you visit the library:
Apples and Pumpkins  Lois Ehlert
Leaf Man  Lois Ehlert
Planting a Rainbow  Lois Ehlert
This is the Rain  Lola Schaefer
Owl Moon  Jane Yolen

Happy Reading!!  :)
