The goal of the Boys and Girls Club Child Literacy project is to sharpen reading skills of academically challenged children at the Boys and Girls Club, while cultivating an excitement for reading and learning. Volunteers in this project not only read aloud to the children, but also encourage the children to read together in small group settings. The volunteers will also be responsible for planning one weekly lesson plan to include a short story, arts and crafts project and a reading/literacy game.
The program operates on summer afternoons from 1:00pm-4:00pm plus fall and spring evenings from 5:30pm-7:00pm.
