Reading To Build A Snowman
The snowman reading program is a fun way for the children at ECEC to learn to love reading.
Mrs. Lally’s class at the Early Childhood Education Center in Dedham is reading to build a snowman. After a child reads a book at home or a parent reads with a child, they write the title of the book on one side of a snowball. In the morning, each child hangs his / her snowballs on the snowman hanging outside the classroom door. The object is for the children to fill out enough snowballs to fill in the gigantic snowman. This is a wonderful way to encourage reading and literacy concepts at home. The students are very excited to see their snowman grow.
