Satellite Center students visit elementary schools, read to classes

On Sept. 11, to honor National Day of Service and Remembrance, the Satellite Center STAR (Students Teaching and Reaching) team members read to young students at both the East Bank Headstart and Carver Early Learning Center.

Each STAR team member selected an age-appropriate  children’s book to read and prepared a literacy activity to engage the students. Some of the activities were to match the alphabet after hearing Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, create llama puppets to accompany the book Llama Llama Red Pajama.   School officials said the young students were excited about being read to by high school students and that STAR team members had as much fun as the young students.
