Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 1
I love to entertain children so that's just what I try to do during my story time.  My class is very informal so your child is welcome to bring a pillow or blanket and relax as they hear the stories. As I read, I ask the children questions, getting them involved and helping them feel like they are helping to read the stories. Along with reading books, I sometimes sing songs and tell jokes or riddles to the kids. I've even been known to do a magic trick or two, now and then. I also have two puppet friends, Hopper and Woolworth, who interact with the learners.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been an instructional aide in an all-day kindergarten class for the past 13 years and the best part of my job is reading to the students. Studies have shown reading aloud to children improves listening skills, helps in language development, expands vocabulary, increases attention span, inspires creativity, encourages a love of reading, teaches life lessons, helps with social and emotional development, and actually raises a child's I.Q. by over six points! It's also a fun way to introduce phonics and the alphabet to preschoolers. 
With a background in theater, I don't just read words to children, I entertain them as well. Using different voices for characters, and facial expressions to emphasize points, I've often looked out over a sea of young faces to see them more engaged in watching me than they are in looking at the story's pictures.
I realize finding time to read to your child can be a challenge so why not let me read to them and keep them entertained as well? It is my hope that my story time will help you as much as it will your child. 
I am the mother of three adult boys and the grandmother of one 10-year-old boy. To this day, my sons tell me some of their best growing-up memories are of me reading to them. How wonderful it would be to have your child think the same thing when they're grown. Imagine hearing them say,  "I remember listening to stories a silly old lady would read to me over the computer. That was so fun!"
