Research has found that therapy dogs provide significant benefits to students and a local, certified therapy dog (Ginger and her Certified Special Education Teacher handler) will be coming for weekly visits to read with my students. Therapy dogs are very good listeners who make no judgments, build confidence and improve literacy skills. An added benefit to the reading component is that the presence of a therapy dog reduces anxiety and stress which is beneficial to all students considering the obstacles they have faced this year. My favorite part about this program is the lending library that will allow students to take books home and practice. Virtual learning has proven detrimental to the majority of my students because few have access to the internet and/or the support necessary to complete work from home. I know that many of my students do not have books at home and I am so excited that this program will give them that! Students will be able to choose a book that interests them that is within their reading level, practice at home and read it to Ginger when she comes to visit each week. They will be able to borrow books as often as they like! Additionally, the multisensory materials and hands on manipulatives will give me the tools to help boost fluency, comprehension and phonics skills. The materials will also allow me to create centers that will allow students to work independently on specific skills. I believe that Reading with Ginger will build confident readers and in turn improve reading and ELA skills that have been and are so seriously affected by the pandemic.
