Public School. Parents like myself, who are involved in this program are very aware of the extra special time and effort that goes into preparing materials and creating fun ways for children to learn. This past week 1 was involved with three different reading groups. Grades one and two were reading short books to me and it was my joy to mark whether the books were too easy, too hard, or just right. Grades two and three were doing book reports. My job was to initial their book reports. By doing this the student could either go on to a new book or keep the same book until they were better prepared. Grades three and four were in- volved in a reading comprehension program. They read a short story and asked them questions on what they had read. Then we played a game with words and sentences from the story. The children really enjoyed this program and the in- dividual attention they received. 1 feel I am doing an important job as a parent volunteer. Helping children with their education is rewarding work and time will spent.
