After the success of World Read Aloud Day, we partnered with three schools that serve children living in poverty to create Reading Clubs. Early Childhood Education students from University of Jos go to these schools once a week to read aloud an engaging and culturally-relevant storybook. They integrate important language and reading skills into the read aloud.
Unfortunately, just as this program was kicking off, schools were closed due to COVID-19. We look forward to resuming the Read Aloud clubs when schools resume.
