Family Engagement Project: Hide-And-Seek, The Pout Fish

Improved Essays
For my family engagement project, I chose to base my literacy bag off of, “Hide-and-Seek, The Pout-Pout Fish.” When choosing a specific story based off of sea creatures, there were many that I could have used. The story that I did choose, is a fun and engaging story with many different sea creatures to explore. I decided to use the grade level of Universal Pre-Kindergarten as my focal age group. There are a multiple different ways to make a family engagement project, however, I decided that I would base mine off of literature due to the importance of literacy and reading aloud. Reading aloud is something that I never knew the importance of until I began my educational journey. I have always been a bookworm and still am to this day. After

    Molly Bang Paper When thinking of this assignment, I immediately knew which book I was going to choose. I felt that choosing a favorite book from my childhood could be a fun way to see the differences in how I viewed it then, and how I might view it today.

Family Literacy Night was a great opportunity to practice my storytelling skills, and practice what questions allow them to think deeper. Although I enjoyed it there were moments that I thought about changing some questions and even changing my book.…
