GVP<\/p>\n

This semester, Friday LW will continue a 5-year partnership with Agnes Scott College. However, we will be working with a new ASC professor, course, and changing the structure of the workshop. All of the continuing and new GVP Friday<\/span><\/span> LW volunteers for Form 2 & 3 ONLY will be working with Professor Gayatri Sethi, PhD and 4-6 ASC students from her Children’s Literature course. GVP Friday<\/span><\/span> LW volunteers for Form 1 will continue throughout the semester with regular workshop sessions described below (Form 1 Teacher, Amy Berry, will have more details for this session). Friday<\/span><\/span> LW starts this Friday, January 6th, so we expect all GVP Friday LW volunteers to start this Friday<\/span><\/span>.<\/b> ASC doesn’t start their semester until the end of January, so the professor and students will join the workshop on January 27th<\/span><\/span>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The structure of the workshop for January (and regular \/ non-ASC sessions) will go as followed:<\/b> We will\u00a0split each class into two groups with two activities and then switch halfway through class. This will allow most volunteers to work with a student one-on-one for 20 minutes and then switch to another student to work one-on-one for 20 minutes. This will also provide a smaller group- only half the class- for the read aloud. The only needs would be one volunteer still willing to read aloud to the groups rather than work one-on-one, and one volunteer to be a time keeper (usually the Volunteer Coordinator).<\/div>\n

Once the ASC volunteers join Literacy workshop, then each session will start out as a simultaneous small group read aloud followed by a 15 minute one-on-one activity. The Form 1 activity will be a math word problem (this may change based on Form 1 Teacher, Amy Berry). The Form 2 and Form 3 activity will be a thematically related speaking\/writing activity.<\/div>\n
