Reading at the Care Center!

On Friday, September 13 we went to the Care Center to read to the residents.  We practiced our books during Read to Self and Read to Someone time during the week so we would be able to do a great job reading to the residents.  It was a little scary at first, but most of us thought it was awesome by the end.  Here are some pictures.  We plan to go every month on the second Friday, and I will try to get pictures of each student reading to someone.
