📚 The Literacy Bus made a special visit to Lafayette Upper Elementary's summer school program! 🚍✨ Students had the opportunity to choose books to take home and participated in some fun games.
Daily reading can significantly improve a child’s reading comprehension, helping them become more proficient and confident readers. Consistent practice enhances vocabulary, understanding of text structure, and critical thinking skills, laying a strong foundation for academic success.
A heartfelt thank you to Cara Buffington for bringing the Literacy Bus to Lafayette Upper Elementary. This support will help nurture the educational growth and imagination of our students. ❤️📖
