SUMMARY:Read And Write Nights - November 2026
DESCRIPTION:Your favorite monthly virtual program is back…\nOh yes\, it’s Read And Write Night!\nKalamazoo County youth in grades K–5 are invited to join RAWK volunteers and volunteers from the Western Michigan University chapter of the National Student Speech Language Hearing Association to share our monthly picture book title. Working in small groups\, we will read aloud and then respond to the story with using engaging and creative prompts that encourage us to discuss\, write\, and draw! After small group time\, we’ll have a chance to share our responses with the whole group. \nHear a perspective that is new to you\, enjoy reading together\, express your ideas\, and find power in the written word. \nAll Read and Write Nights will take place via Google Meet. \nEach participating family will receive a copy of our monthly book prior to the event\nThis month’s session is open to 16 families \n\nClick here to register\nOur November title is Being Home \nwritten by Traci Sorell and illustrated by Michaela Goade \nToday is a day of excitement—it’s time to move! As a young Cherokee girl says goodbye to the swing\, the house\, and the city she’s called home her whole life\, she readies herself for the upcoming road trip. While her mother drives\, the girl draws the changing landscape outside her window. She looks forward to the end of the journey\, where she’ll eat the feast her family has prepared\, play in the creek with her cousins\, and settle into the new rhythm of home. \nWith warm\, expressive artwork and spare\, lyrical prose\, the story of a young girl’s move toward rather than away from home unfolds. \n
