Reading for pleasure

One of the very important reading centers at Reading Camp is the pleasure reading center. While other centers (Phonics, Decoding, Strategies, Comprehension, and Writing) focus on learning and fine tuning skills, the pleasure reading center helps the students build confidence on the skills they already have, become more comfortable with books, and help learn that reading is a fun activity. It is in the center that the children can choose a book of their own to read alone, with an adult, to another camper, or even to a reading dog!
