Reading Club

Reading Club is the children's literacy tutorial program. It is designed for children ages 7–12 who are having trouble with reading in school and need some extra help. It is not a program for good readers to get extra practice.

  • Session 1 begins in September and ends in December. Session 2 runs from February to May. Registration cards are available at the library a month before a session begins. Registration for the next session begins on August 15 and ends September 12, 2009.
  • Volunteer tutors read to the children, work on sight vocabulary, phonics and other word-attack skills, comprehension, and writing. They follow a structured curriculum. The next tutor training workshop for Reading Club is September 7, 9, 14, & 16 from 6 - 9 p.m.
  • Children are organized into groups of two to four according to age and ability.
  • All children are given a short assessment before they can begin classes. Children meet in the library twice a week depending on their age:
