For children, reading opens the doors to new places – exposing them to different environments, expanding their interests and imagination. This year’s CubsREAD adventure will take young readers to all corners of the world!
Students from UCA’s Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (College of Health & Behavioral Sciences) will work one-on-one or in a small group with your child on the basics of reading and comprehension in a fun and interactive environment. Along with focusing on phonological awareness, art-themed projects and movement-based activities centered on the reading material will be presented to help enrich and enliven your child’s reading with the hopes of better retention and increased reading enjoyment.
CubsREAD is open to Kindergarteners, 1st graders and 2nd graders who are needing some additional support in their reading development. Give your child the opportunity to strengthen their literary foundation – register now!
