Storytime at the Public Library

TREC tutors read aloud and engage children in literacy activities each Thursday morning from 10:30 until 11:45 a.m. at the Morris Public Library located at 102 East Sixth Street. With the assistance of TREC staff, Storytime TREC tutors select texts and plan developmentally appropriate activities based on preschool children’s needs and interests, and text genre. Storytime at the Library engages young children in listening, speaking, and action oriented literacy activities. Following introductory activities, read-alouds, and interaction with others during the reading, children respond to the literature in a variety of ways through drawing, coloring, role-play, oral response, and innovation on the text.
