Reading Help

Reading Buddies: Children in grades 2-4 who could benefit from a little support and guidance with their reading will be paired with a trained teen Reading Buddy volunteer to read together. The goal is to help the young buddy improve their confidence and develop a positive attitude toward reading. 

We are offering two in-person options:
  1. Tuesdays, February 18 - April 15, 4:00-5:00 pm (No class March 25)
  2. Wednesdays, February 19 - April 16, 6:30-7:30 pm (No class March 26)
Now accepting applications for Reading Buddies

Bookable Buddies: Come to the Jensen Lakes Library and read in a fun and encouraging environment with a friendly Reading Buddy!  Bring your own book or choose one from our collection. For kids in grades 2-4 who could use a little support with their reading.

Choose from one of three 25 minute slots from 6 to 7:30 pm on Thursdays, from January 23 to March 20. Registration can be found on the Library's calendar.
