Tutors may choose to work in one of the five participating school sites. The program offers a variety of fun activities to encourage children to read. Newspapers in Education uses newspaper articles and current events to stimulate their interest in reading. Storytelling and reading clubs introduce the children to literature and promote a love for reading. Hooked on Phonics offers a phonics approach to learning to read.
Tutors work under the direct supervision of the teachers.
All training is done by certified teachers of the New Brunswick Schools. A donation from a local bookstore will be used to provide age appropriate reading for the children. Some books may be given to the children to take home.
