English Language Arts

• The child practiced reading skills by selecting books for the Read-a-thon and reading them independently.
• Through writing a reflection or summary of the books read, the child enhanced their comprehension and summarization skills.
• By participating in the Read-a-thon, the child developed their vocabulary and understanding of different literary genres.
• The child improved their speaking and presentation skills by sharing their favorite books and experiences during the Read-a-thon with classmates.

Continued development can be fostered by encouraging the child to write book reviews or recommendations for their favorite reads from the Read-a-thon. This can be done by creating a mini-book club where the child can discuss their thoughts and opinions with friends or family members. Additionally, they can explore different writing styles by creating their own short stories inspired by the books they read during the Read-a-thon.
