Be sure to Familiarize yourself with your book or reading. Be animated and make your part memorable for the kids! Adding in your own comments during story time is okay!
Depending on the number of children that attend the program, we might need you to stick around and help facilitate a small group (4-5 children).

After ALL the readings are completed for each age group - children will be organized into small groups of 4-5 children each.  One or Two facilitators (depending on # of volunteers) will facilitate a discussion guided by discussion questions that will be provided to you.
How to use the Discussion Questions:
1. Use as a guiding document, you don't have to ask all the questions. These are for guidance and to allow for conversation starters.
2. Allow for conversation to flow even if not all questions are asked or touched on
3. There are no right or wrong answers. What the child answers is their reality/thought at the moment and that is OK (copy of the discussion questions will be provided to caregivers for them to follow up)
4. If you sense your group is not understanding the questions, feel free to paraphrase and ask in a different way
