Hello and welcome to "Book Club,"

My name is Sally Stroud. I am a Reading Interventionist at Chapin Elementary. I have received special training in order to assist some of our students with reading and writing.  I have taught kindergarten, Reading Recovery and small intervention groups of all grade levels. I absolutely LOVE my job!  It thrills me to help children become lifelong readers and learners.

It is my goal to accelerate students' reading progress by providing a fun, challenging, positive and enriched learning environment that enables each student to reach their academic potential.  Together we will create the conditions necessary to help each student construct:

• an understanding that reading is a meaning-making process
• a belief in their own ability to make sense of text
• the desire to engage in reading with pleasure and purpose
