The rise of READING!

What happens when one succeeds? We ALL succeed!

This week the magic of reading has inspired all learners. How did this happen? All it took was one. One learner took the brave leap to try and read a Bob book and could do it! The smile, the pride, and the joy of this learner sharing their accomplishment was priceless. This one learner first read to a friend then with the desire to read more chose to invite the entire studio to listen to a book. What happened next? The learners were blown away and deeply inspired to learn to read. You could literally hear a pin drop and the sense of joy and wonder was flooding. 

It’s amazing how one learner had the ability to impact the goals of all learners in the studio. Immediately following and then one-by-one learners began to ask “Can I have a lesson on the books?” “Can I read to the whole class?” “What do I need to do in order to read?”. It’s simple, all it takes in the studio is a handful of sound materials to explore and a little encouragement to open a book and try. 

What’s even more amazing? We started with one reader and now we have nine and counting!
