2017-18 Fluency Friends Year Wrap-Up by Kathy Sielsky
Posted by Chuck Chase on Aug 03, 2018
Yet another successful Fluency Friend’s program has come to an end and Michener Elementary’s Reading Specialist, Kathy Sielsky, was on hand to provide the update. Here is what she shared with us:
 
 
  • 155 HOURS OF EXTRA READING PRACTICE WAS PROVIDED BY THE VOLUNTEERS!
  • 100% OF THE STUDENTS BENEFITED FROM THEIR FLUENCY FRIEND EXPERIENCE!
  • 63 % OF THOSE STUDENTS MADE THEIR PROJECTED GROWTH GOAL ON THE NWEA ASSESSMENT!
 
The year was capped off with another Celebration Reception at the Michener Elementary Library on May 24th.
 
Kathy thanked our club for once again purchasing over 500 books of which each student was able to select 5 to keep and take home and read during the summer! The remainder of the books were shared with summer school students and some were added to the Fluency Friends Library collection! An afternoon was set aside for club members to affix labels to each of the new books.
 
Among the comments made by members who volunteered this year were:
  • “I really enjoyed the girls - I think they worked hard and were very nice.”
  • “Watching the students learn more words and being able to read without a lot of coaching”
  • “I enjoyed working with the boys and seeing them engage with the story”
  • “Building relationships with the students by giving them one on one attention.”
Among the feedback from students participating in the program this year were:
  • “I like going with my Fluency Friend because I get to read books and also get a pride ticket.”
  • “She helped me with hard words.”
  • “I got to read different books than what was in my classroom.”
  • “She was really nice and I got to read good books.”
  • “I felt very special when I got to go and read books with him. ”
Kathy concluded the presentation by saying that “The students really appreciated your dedication by sharing your time and talents with them. The extra reading practice and the kindness you all showed them was priceless”!
 
A special thanks goes to Mary Murray for chairing this important event again this year and helping to make it the success that it was!!

UPDATES
Presentation to Neighbor's of Hope - The Adrian Noon Rotary Club’s Onion Sales project has always been a successful fundraiser every year and 2018 was no exception. It chose Neighbors of Hope this year to support the soon to be opened Women’s and Children’s Center. At their August 2nd regular meeting, club President, Kathye Herrera, presented NOH’s Executive Director Pastor Steve Palmer with a check for $1,000 to help support the soon-to-be Women’s & Children’s Shelter at the former Herrick Manor in Tecumseh. The Adrian Noon Rotary Club has supported the efforts of NOH in the past particularly with their 3rd Day Farm Project now located on West Maple Avenue. Shown in the picture above from left to right are President Kathye Herrera, Pastor Steve Palmer and Immediate Past President of the club, Nate Smith.
