Lily had a great time today at the Westhampton Elementary School (WES) in her role as a Bright Spot Reading Buddy. She loved meeting the two nursing students from Greenfield Community College who came to observe this special program in action. She also loved listening to a variety of books being read to her by the first and second graders. A book about a spider taught Lily that spiders are good to have around!
One second grader brought in a special book created by her grandma. It was full of family photos with stories about all the family fun they have together. Even Lily’s photo was in the book! Lily was glad she chose that book to read.
Lily loves attention – and she got plenty of it today from people of all ages. In addition to the nursing students, one of our Bright Spot volunteers in training to become certified with her dog as a Reading Buddy Team was there to observe Reading Buddy Lily in action, as well.
