Reading with Jacob

Year 2 had a lovely time reading to Jacob. They found this a therepeutic and beneficial experience. Here are some of the benefits of reading to Jacob:

  1. Dogs are non-judgemental so children are less self-conscious
  2. Most children have a natural affinity and bond with dogs
  3. Children are allowed to improve their reading skills in a fun relaxed atmosphere
  4. Results show that it decreases stress over reading aloud in class
  5. It can enhance self-esteem, motivate speech and build confidence
As you can see, they had a wonderful time reading their books and teaching Jacob about VIPERS!
