Way to Help Title Way to Help Content When you're a Reading Buddy, you help bring books to life for our Club members. Once you're in the Club you are partnered with your Reading Buddy. You greet your Club member and get to know them. Together, you will select books and be given a small reading passage. After reading for twenty minutes, you review the reading passage, with the Club member reading through it with your support. You clean up together, reminding them how important it is to read every day, letting them know how proud you are of their growth and how excited you are to see them again next week.
