D88 Offers On-Demand Read-Aloud Storytime!
Reading aloud is one of the most important things parents and teachers can do with children.
READING ALOUD...
• builds many critical foundational skills;
• introduces vocabulary;
• provides a model of fluent, expressive reading; and
• helps children recognize what reading for pleasure is all about.
Once again, D88 is offering read-aloud stories. This year, we are offering On-Demand Storytime. Read-aloud stories are available on the district website at: https://www.plano88.org/page/read-aloud-storytime
