Reading Program for Kids
Reading For Reptiles !
I was trying to come up with a way to promote reading for kids and what better way than to use a reptile as a reward system. The Reading for reptiles reading program is a module based reading program. We will be offering reading modules about what we feel are great beginner reptiles. These will be 10-20 page informational modules about their origin and general care . There will be a contract an expectation and a reward.
Reptiles captivate young minds!
I see a real need in our society to get young kids away from their video games and nourish their minds. I know as a parent how difficult it can be to get them to read unless it is something that really interest them. Reptiles have a way of captivating kids , kids gravitate to reptiles and are very curious about them. We have developed a system that we feel has the potential to jump start those reluctant readers.
The Contract
A written contract will be signed by the parent and the child ! this will be a document that will be able to be downloaded at our website along with the modules. The child will agree to read all ten modules and achieve a passing score on the quizzes required at the end of each module. We want the kids to be successful so the quizzes can be taken multiple times after the module is reviewed. The parent agrees if the child completes the program and works hard they will be rewarded. The reward will be a reptile chosen from the 10 modules and a complete setup for the reptile.
The Fee
That’s the best part of the program , There is no fee ! The modules will be in WORD format and available to download at our website.
Reptiles make great pets and teach responsibility!
Parents please stay open minded about allowing reptiles ! My mother was totally against reptiles in the house and reluctantly allowed them as long as I cared for them correctly. I owe my knowledge and love of reptiles to her . Reptiles are a great way to teach kids responsibility (seven)and a great test for allowing a dog or cat. Reptiles require very little space and require a minimal amount of time for care. Reptiles do not become depressed as can a puppy if not socialized daily. Reptiles are virtually silent and not keeping you up all night barking! Reptiles have allot of advantages as a first pet and getting your kids reading is a wonderful gift that can last a lifetime.
