Reading Workshop begins in CODENI

On Friday May 13, 2011, in the area of Academic Support, we began a new reading workshop. In CODENI we recognize strong reading skills as a fundamental ability for the development of our children and adolescents.

The workshop is organized between our volunteer Samaria Alonso and the coordinator of the area of education, Martín López Espíritu. The objective of the workshop is to promote the love of reading and simultaneously improve comprehension, fluidity and speed reading. To accomplish this objective, each participant in the workshop selects books from our library that he or she wants to read.

The participants were enthusiastic and chose stories such as “Snow White” and “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” which they took home to read and share with their families and shared the stories with the group in the following workshop.

The workshop includes different activities such as story-telling, stories with pictures and group reading dynamics, with the intention of drawing our children and adolescents to the library and transforming the activity of reading from an responsibility to a pleasure.
