Description
Jerri has two special guests on the show to discuss how to keep your child's reading level consistent over the summer months.
A
Hi,
I'm
gerry
hide
you
services,
specialist,
at
the
Ames
public
library,
welcome
to
well
read
a
program
about
a
little
bit
of
this
and
a
little
bit
of
that
at
your
aims:
public
library,
well
getting
to
school,
ready
to
read
grade-level
reading
graduating
from
high
school,
the
Ames
reads:
group
the
raising
readers
in
storey,
County
Iowa,
State,
University,
your
public
school
system
and
the
Ames
public
library.
What
do
these
all
have
in
common?
Well,
that's
what
we're
here
to
talk
to
you
about
today
and
I
have
a
couple
special
guests,
Diane
and
dr.
A
B
B
A
C
A
little
bit
about
that
I'm
I'd
be
glad
to
I'm
a
co-director
of
the
duffel
Meyer
clinger
clinic
at
the
University,
and
we
work
with
children
who
have
reading
difficulties.
I
was
a
classroom
teacher
as
well,
and
then
I've
been
working
with
kids
who
have
reading
difficulties
and
I've
been
doing
that
for
about
30
years.
This
is
my
first
year
at
iowa
state
and
I
spent
27
years
at
University
of
Nevada
in
Reno
and
I
work
with
kids
who
have
reading
difficulties
and
I
do
research
in
that
area
and.
C
Sure
I
do
research
with
preschoolers
who
are
learning
to
read
and
I
also
do
research
with
high
school
students
who
are
learning
to
read
at
the
upper
level.
We
look
at
vocabulary,
development
and
reading
difficulties
and
teaching
students
at
a
study
at
the
lower
levels
were
more
concerned
with
their
ability
to
read
words
well
and
at
all
levels
were
interested
in
children
enjoying
reading
having
a
good
time
reading
and.
C
A
A
And
when
you
have
a
level
book
like
that,
it's
a
book
that
we
want
to
match
the
interest,
but
also
the
ability
and
then
have
that
interaction
with
an
adult
of
some
sort,
whether
it's
a
parent
or
a
teacher
or
tutoring
in
our
case
this
summer.
So
they
can
help
help
that
child
read
and
understand
their
fluency.
That's.
C
Right,
we
want
to
teach
families
how
to
sit
together
and
read,
and
if
the
book
is
at
the
child's
instructional
level,
you
can
just
talk
about
the
book
and
maybe
we'll
take
turns
reading
a
page
back
and
forth.
I
can
tell
you,
though,
if
the
child
hesitates
for
more
than
three
seconds
go
ahead
and
tell
your
child.
The
word
yeah
good.
A
A
A
So
those
are
things
that
that
you've
been
doing
your
your
research
and
sharing
that,
and
I
know
we
we
have
some
research
to
that
talks
about
that
summer.
Slide
that
you
know
from
the
school
end
to
the
school
beginning
that
there's
some
loss
for
students
and
for
readers
dan.
Do
you
want
to
talk
a
little.
B
Bit
about
that
research
indicates
that
students,
especially
low-income
students
who
are
not
reading
during
this
summer,
do
slide
back
in
there
they're
learning
up
to
two
to
three
months,
but
in
talking
to
some
of
the
local
aims
teachers
I've
found
that
it
actually
takes
until
january
for
some
of
the
students
to
get
back
to
where
they
were
at
the
end
of
that
previous
year.
So.
A
All
that
that,
first
six
months,
basically
a
school
all
they're
doing,
is
reviewing
and
catching
up
from
what
they
lost
over
the
summer
right
and
some
of
that
summer.
Loss
is
due
to
the
imeem
I
know
it's
due
to
lack
of
reading
and
lack
of
engagement
in
that
book.
Are
there
other
things
that
we
could
suggest
to
our
parents
that
they
now
you
know?
Sometimes
we
talk
about
what
we
all
should
do,
but
there
are
some
things
we
shouldn't
do
as
well.
Well,.
C
Sort
of
like
riding
a
horse,
you
have
to
spend
time
in
the
saddle
and
that's
what
we
want:
the
children
to
do
as
well
being
around
books
having
books
in
the
home,
regular
trips
to
the
library
to
get
five
or
six
books,
taking
them
home
and
coming
back
and
forth.
Just
having
books
around
to
look
at
and
to
look
through
and
maybe
getting
someone
to
read
a
book
to
me
and
me
having
the
opportunity
to
read
so
the
more
time
they
can
spend
reading
during
the
summer.
The
better
and
that.
A
Reading
is
not
I
talk
like
with
my
preschoolers
and
the
beginner
readers
in
the
lower
elementary.
It's
not
necessarily
reading
a
book.
It's
also
reading
the
back
of
a
cereal
box
and
talking
having
that
conversation
about
what
that
is,
or
talking
about
the
pictures
that
are
in
the
book
and
and
having
that
parent
or
the
older
brother
and
sister
kind
of
do
a
collab,
a
social
type
of
engagement.
It's.
C
And
so
one
of
the
things
that
D
works
on
and
the
aural
of
our
tutoring
programs
work
on
is
finding
interesting
topics
to
study,
because,
if
you're
interested
in
something
you're
more
likely
to
read
about
it,
if
you're
interested
in
something
you'll
ask
somebody
to
tell
you
more
and
you'll.
Do
those
internet
searches
so
talking
to
your
child
about
what's
interesting.
Finding
supporting
reading
materials
is
essential
that.
A
C
Right
and
here's
a
nonfiction
book
on
sea
lions
in
the
Navy,
and
so
a
lot
of
people
would
like
to
learn
about
sea
lions.
It's
a
it's
a
fact
of
life.
Isn't
it
Lyle
Lyle
crocodile
is
a
fact
of
our
imaginations,
let's
say,
and
so
what
a
wonderful
book
and
just
the
rhythm
of
the
language
is
so
wonderful
and
so
I'm
an
older
brother
I
can
read
to
my
younger,
siblings
I'm.
A
parent
I
might
have
a
child
who's
interested
in
sea
lions,
and
so
we
had
need
all
types
of
books
around.
A
I
think
it's
time
for
us.
It
too
we've
been
talking
about
what
we
can
do
in
our
home,
but
we
also
you
know
it
that
old
adage
that
you
know
it
takes
a
village
to
raise
your
raise
a
family
or
raise
a
child,
and
that's
kind
of
some
of
the
things
that
we're
doing
here
in
ames
this
summer.
You
know
the
library
has
a
summer
library
program
that
kind
of
enhances
some
of
the
things,
but
we
have
some
specific
programs
like
our
book,
buddy
programs
and
Diane.
B
Are
our
look
buddies
and
what
we
want
to
do
is
encourage
students
to
enjoy,
reading
and
writing
as
well
as
maintain
and
increase
their
reading
skills
during
the
summer,
and
so
one
way
we're
doing.
That
is
offering
free
tutoring
for
students
that
kindergarten
through
third
grade,
who
might
be
a
little
below
proficiency
level.
So
we
have
tutors
that
dr.
bear
has
graciously
trained
and
we
have
teachers
that
are
writing
lesson
plans
for
the
tutors
and
will
be
located
in
several
locations
throughout
aims
to
make
it
convenient
for
people
and.
A
I
think
that's
a
very
important
fact
that
it's
not
where
well
they'll
have
to
go
to
the
place.
The
locations
that
we
have.
We
haven't
spread
it.
You
know
we
haven't
concentrated
in
one
area.
It's
not
just
at
Iowa.
State
is
not
just
here
in
the
library
which
there
isn't
any
space
right
now
to
do
that,
but
hopefully
in
the
future.
But
you
know
it's
not
in
one
particular
space,
so
people
around
the
around
aims
and
children
around
aims
can
find
that
closest
spot
to
have
exactly.
B
A
But
we're
still
accepting
yeah,
so
we
have
this
at
the
library
way
where
you
can
email
and/or
talk
about.
We've
had
some
inquires
inquiries
here
as
well
talking
about
what
kind
of
where
they
can
go
and
and
who
they
can
contact
and
what
times
those
are.
So
can
you
kind
of
visit
share
those
times.
We.
B
Are
being
very
flexible
with
the
timing
we
have
morning
times
afternoon
times,
and
we
want
to
have
some
early
evening
times
also
because
we're
finding
that
a
lot
of
parents
are
working
and
they
feel
that
they
can't
get
their
child
to
tutoring
until
right
after
work.
So
we
want
to
really
be
accommodating
with
those
schedules
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
kids
have
a
chance
to
enjoy
their
summer
and
and
go
to
the
aquatic
center
in
the
afternoon
too.
So
these
are
40
minute
sessions
and
twice.
A
C
We
call
it
route
RR
wewt,
read
too,
we
want
to
read
to
our
children
read
with,
and
so
that's
sitting
together
using
the
level
books
and
reading
with
our
children
as
a
tutor.
I'll
read
with
the
student
will
do
that
for
most
of
the
time
re
to
read
with
we'll
do
a
little
bit
of
writing
with
the
students,
and
then
we
do.
Some
word
study
now
word
study
is
the
phonics
and
the
spelling
and
the
vocabulary.
So
as
we
read,
we
talk
about
the
words,
but
we
also
do
word
sorts
and
word
study
activities.
C
We
play
word
study
games
and
then
the
last
thing
that
we
do
is
we
do
plenty
of
talking
with
our
students.
We
want
them
to
talk
about
what
they're
reading
we
want
to
talk
about
what
our
ideas
are
about:
sea
lions,
for
example.
So
all
the
tutors
are
trained
in
read
to
read
with
right
with
and
word
study
and
talking
with
our
students
and.
A
C
Wash
or
any
board
game
any
card
game
can
be
a
word
study
game,
so
even
at
home,
I
could
have
some
words
or
pictures
of
different
sounds
so
I
might
sort
or
have
words
or
pictures
that
we
sort
by
beginning
sounds
like
the
ball
and
baby
compared
to
monkey
and
and
money
and
monster,
and-
and
these
are
pictures
that
the
children
will
sort
into
categories
by
beginning
sound.
But
we
also
work
up
to
long
vowels,
and
so
we
might
compare
the
way.
C
The
words
are
spelled
different
long,
vowel,
spellings
and
the
children
have
active
ways
of
sorting
the
words,
but
we
also
play
word
study
games
like
concentration
and
go
fish
and
that's
a
part
of
our
tutoring,
and
so
we
believe
that
all
children
can
/
can
learn
to
read.
Well
nearly
all
children,
and
so
if
we
provide
some
support
along
the
way
more
time
in
the
saddle
learning
how
to
read
that
the
children
will
make
real
progress.
I
know.
A
B
A
A
A
And
so
that
we've
talked
about
our
students
coming
or
our
children
coming
and
being
empowered.
Tell
us,
though,
about
who
some
of
our
tutors
are
because
I'm
really
excited
I
know
the
answer,
but
I
have
want
you
guys
to
tell
about
how
exciting
it
is
that
that
some
of
our
younger
people
are
in
our
community
are
wanting
to
do
this
as
well
right.
B
Well,
anyone
that
loves
reading
and
wants
to
spread
that
enthusiasm
to
young
people
would
qualify
to
be
a
tutor
as
long
as
they've
gone
through.
Dr.
bears
training
and
we
have
some
high
school
students.
We
have
college
students,
we
have
retired
people,
we
have
just
a
whole
range
of
Ages
that
want
to
get
involved
and
I
think
that's
the
beauty
to
show
how
our
community
can
come
together
and
have
collective
impact
for
everyone,
and
that.
A
Kind
of
some
eise's
everything
I
was
going
to
say
in
my
conclusion,
so
I'm
not
sure
what
more
I
can
say
is
that
it
truly
does
take
a
village
to
raise
our
children
and
and
have
them
ready
to
read
at
kindergarten
or
ready
to
learn
to
read
at
kindergarten
in
and
that
grade
level,
reading
and
graduating
from
high
school.
It's
just
not
the
school
system's
responsibility
is
our
parents
and
it's
our
us
as
a
community
member,
and
many
of
us
are
volunteering
to
make
that
happen
and
make
aims
truly
a
community
of
readers.
A
So,
if
you're
interested
in
helping
that
out,
you
sure
can
contact
me
or
our
contact
raising
readers
or
Diane.
She
gave
you
or
her
email
will
put
you
in
the
right
place
at
the
right
time.
So
we
can
tutor
our
children
and
empower
our
families
and
our
children
to
be
great
readers
until
next
time.
Thank
you
for
viewing
our
show.
