An interactive,
paws-itive
literacy experience with a therapy dog.
Eileen's author visits with a therapy dog are designed to be more than a book reading and look at
a dog.
Eileen's goal is to offer each student a chance to connect and/ or interact with one of her certified therapy dogs, Suki or Kong.
Eileen's visits are designed to help -
Build confidence,
Support CASEL 5 competencies,
Discover the joy of reading and writing,
Create lasting memories and inspiration from all the dog-gone fun they had!
Your Literacy
Adventure Awaits!
