Michelle Coombs.JPG (62207 bytes)The idea of this room is to let children choose books that they will enjoy, to instil a love for reading, rather than telling them what they must read. All J.P. learners have access to the Reading Room, and they can take books up to four times a week. The books are graded from level one to level ten and there are around 200 books per level, affording children a wide selection to choose from. The emphasis is on fun, so the level that the learner is reading is slightly lower than his ability and learners won't find them too difficult. Initially parents read the book to their children, but by June in Grade 1 they should be able to read the book to their parents. A big thank you to all the monitors for their hard work and I wish all learners continued reading enjoyment.
