Our Literacy for Kids Program provides one-on-one reading tutoring at several schools weekly and donates new books to students at selected schools. We recently held a \u201cBuild a Child\u2019s Library\u201d book fair at a Title 1 school in Falls Church for 650 Pre-K through 6th-grade students. Each student selected a book from the new books displayed in the school\u2019s art room on tables specific to grade levels. Our member volunteers and the teachers helped the students find the books they would like. Volunteers then stamped the selected books, and the students signed their names in the books to indicate it was theirs to keep. An Assistance League member inserted a bookmark into each book, which the students liked. The younger students were excited to get any new book while some of the older students had a hard time choosing just one.\u00a0 Several times they resorted to using eeny, meeny, miny, moe to help them decide.\u00a0 It was a great day for the students and our member volunteers!<\/p>\n
