Read Aloud Program: In May we organize a "Day of Service"
where a CCREA member is matched with a second grade class in
Cheshire County to read a book. Presently we are working with
over 45 second grade classrooms. The teachers and children welcome
us into their classrooms where they are eager to share the joy
of reading. The Elm City Rotary Club provides funding for a hard-cover
copy of the book for each classroom that we visit. Books are
purchased locally through the Toadstool Bookstores who provide
us with a generous discount.
In the spring of 2024, Jory John's
"The Smart Cookie" was delivered to grade 2 classrooms
throughout Cheshire County.
In the spring of 2023, Cleo Wade's,
"What The Road Said", was read in grade 2 classrooms
throughout Cheshire County

Hello Helen, Linda, &
Maggie!
Our second graders wanted to send a letter to thank you for coming
to read to our classrooms and giving us a lovely book to add
to our collections. Please share these letters with Maggie as
well. We appreciate the time and thought you put into reading
to children.
Thanks again!

Hi Gwen,
Thank you so much for taking time to come read to our class!
The students are constantly choosing the book, What the Road
Said, for their free read time.

In the spring of 2022, Jory John's
"The Good Egg" was delivered to grade 2 classrooms
throughout Cheshire County.
During the Covid year's, because
we were unable to visit classrooms to read, Dan Brown's "Wild
Symphony" was purchased and delivered to music teachers
throughout Cheshire County in the fall of 2021.
