Dogs to help children learn to read
Leah Sheldon and Janine Sigley formed the non-profit Story Dogs organisation in 2009 in Murwillumbah, NSW. At the time both Leah and Janine had primary school aged children.After seeing a similar program operating in the USA on the internet they decided Australia needed such a program. They came up with Story Dogs, based on the successful American literacy program, Reading Education Assistance Dogs (R.E.A.D.), which was launched in 1999 in Utah, USA. R.E.A.D. was the first comprehensive literacy program built around the appealing idea of children and young adolescents reading to dogs.Leah and Janine are both dog lovers and also passionate about children reaching their full potential.Natalie Bubner is the coordinator for the Adelaide and the surrounding area.https://www.storydogs.org.au/GUERRILLA PODCAST: FRESH EYESWebsite: www.podcast.kangaroofern.comApple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/Podcasting_AppleSpotify: http://bit.ly/podcasting_spotifyGoogle: http://bit.ly/Podcasting_GooglepodSticher: http://bit.ly/Podcasting_StitcherPlease support us: www.patreon.com/kangaroofern Hosted on Acast.
