Event details: Read to a Dog
Description
Come and read for fun to Terren, aka "Mr. T" - a gentle, trained dog who, with his owner Michael Bloker, visits every first and third Monday of the month.
The dog creates a very low stress environment for children who are learning or having difficulties learning to read. As the child reads aloud, the dog listens and enjoys the story and never corrects the child.
The dog just loves what the child is doing! A loving, low-stress time for children to read is often extremely helpful in learning to read.
