MONDAY, JUNE 8TH @ 11:30AM...on ZOOM
School is complete...time to have ZOOM fun! This year we will kick off Summer Reading by making some snacks with our virtual friends. It is National Best Friend Day...so let us cook up something special with out best friends!
I promise it is not porridge and my best friend is not a pig...hahaha!
Kids and parents will be able to whip up some edible names made with chocolate, snack on some pepperoni muffin bites and top it off with a chocolate chip smoothie!
The goal of this program is for the children to dicover the fun of cooking. In creating snacks themselves, they are often willing to try some foods that otherwise they would turn up their noses at. By starting early, we hope the children will develop a passion for baking and cooking!
This program is 1 hour long...using the ZOOM app. We will be sending out all the needed ingredients on Monday, June 1st to families that are registered. We will send the link to ZOOM to the registered families on Monday, June 8th @ 9:30am.
*PRIZE...BEST CHEF OUTFIT
This will be a lot of fun for families!!!
(please register each child in the same block... as we need to count screen vs kids)

THURSDAY, JUNE 11TH @ 7PM - ON ZOOM
Join us and our furry friends on ZOOM. The main objective of this program is to provide a relaxed and “dog-friendly” atmosphere, which allows kids to practice the skill of reading. By looking at a dog and reading to the dog, all threats of being judged are put aside. The child relaxes, waves to the attentive dog, and focuses on the reading. Reading improves because the child is practicing the skill of reading, building self-esteem, and associating reading with something pleasant.
*One lucky winner will receive a Special Dog Ribbon
*Attend 1 Read to the Dogs Programs, on ZOOM, to receive a special Brag Tag
*Everyone registered will receive a paperback book

THURSDAY, JULY 9TH @ 7PM - ON ZOOM
Join us and our furry friends on ZOOM. The main objective of this program is to provide a relaxed and “dog-friendly” atmosphere, which allows kids to practice the skill of reading. By looking at a dog and reading to the dog, all threats of being judged are put aside. The child relaxes, waves to the attentive dog, and focuses on the reading. Reading improves because the child is practicing the skill of reading, building self-esteem, and associating reading with something pleasant.
*One lucky winner will receive a Special Dog Ribbon
*Attend 1 Read to the Dogs Programs, on ZOOM, to receive a special Brag Tag
*Everyone registered will receive a paperback book
*Program will earn you 60 minutes towards Summer Reading minutes...4 stickers on tracking sheet
