Daily After-School Reading, Homework Help & Art Program 2:45pm to 6pm Monday to Friday
At the Jynell Belle Creative Arts Resource Center, daily reading, phonetic tools practice, and art activities are essential for the development of children aged 3 and older and we celebrate each child as they Learn, Create and Shine in these areas!
Daily Reading
We encourage a consistent reading routine where each child reads aloud for 10-15 minutes with a skilled teacher, building confidence and appreciation. We choose colorful, engaging picture books with simple, repetitive text to hold their attention. Open ended questions about the story and pictures to develop comprehension and vocabulary are asked and each child is encouraged to “read” along by pointing at pictures and repeating familiar words.
Phonetic Tools Practice
At the Jynell Belle Creative Arts Resource Center phonetic activities using tools like alphabet blocks, flashcards, and magnetic letters are used to build foundations for stronger reading. We focus on letter sounds rather than names, helping the child associate sounds with letters and games like matching sounds to pictures or identifying beginning sounds in simple words. We practice blending sounds to form simple words, promoting early decoding skills.
Art Activities
Each week at the Jynell Belle Creative Arts Resource Center we compete an exciting Art Project that is rooted in a Fine Art principle. Daily open-ended art supplies such as crayons, washable markers, finger paints, and paper are available for individual exploration. We Invite children to explore colors, shapes, and textures freely to foster creativity and fine motor skills.
Combining these daily practices nurtures literacy, creativity, and cognitive development in children through fun, interactive experiences.
2:45 to 6 pm daily.
