LIBRARY
HOLIDAY READING
I would like to take this opportunity to encourage all students to take time out to read these holidays. Reading can be a nice, quiet, relaxing break from devices and busy lives.
Here are some suggestions to enjoy your reading:
- Reading takes place in the mind, but there is no denying there’s a physical component to it as well. If you are not comfortable, chances are you won’t be reading as long or digesting the story as well. Choose a quiet comfortable spot to read such as a beanbag or comfy chair or couch with pillows;
- Pets are also relaxing so read with your pet or read to your pet;
- Read outside in the garden or under a tree, take a blanket and a pillow;
- Read with snacks!
Enjoy!
