Fall is the time to snuggle up with a new book!
Fall is the season for reading! What better way to spend a nice afternoon than sitting in a tree house and reading? We strongly believe that enjoying good literature is the foundation of a life-long learner.
During weekends and evenings, please encourage your child to choose topics that they are interested in learning more about. Maybe reading books about faraway places, how to make or create something; or a biography about someone they look up to. After they read a book, ask them why they chose it, what did they learn from it, would they select another book by the same author, and who was their favorite character. Read along with your child, share reading by reading every other page, or simply read to your child. When you are on the road, remind your child to bring a book along for the ride. Remember that we are never alone when we have a book in our pocket.You can choose any book that is age and ability appropriate and that your child has an interest in reading. You can help your child make selections at the bookstore or visit one of the libraries in our area—Will Rogers Library (Claremore), Catoosa Public Library, or a Tulsa City-County Library.
