leave the phone, take a book

Readers from Nitra

Slovakia

We approached 25 kindergartens, 37 schools, local library, 250 HD students to “Leave the Phone and Take a Book”. The idea was to send a photo with a reading project about reading an English book. It was promoted via Facebook, emails, leaflets and yH lessons. We collected more than 290 photos and projects. The highlight was a “Book Heroes Carnival”. We are so happy that our participants put away their phones and started reading books instead. We awarded them by YH certificates, Dragon Tales and ABc cards. Together, we made a change and we will continue doing so!

The main goal of the booktrailer is to popularize the fairy tale of the Russian writer M.

storyland heroes

Thailand

We have a special room designed as "storyland" area where young children are welcome to join the activities and listen to our students read stories. By joining, the kids are requested to donate books or give funds to help less fortunate kids from the Foundation for Slum Child Care where our teachers are doing outreach activities since June of 2017. We believe that "readers are leaders" and as good leader you have to serve your community. Therefore, through the skills of our "Young Heroes" we are able to share resources with those who are in need.

New stories every month

Kotia and friends

Ukraine

Pechersk LC students want to help orphans to read new stories every month. Together with the childrens’ magazine "Maliuk Kotia," our Young Heroes decided to subscribe up to 500 orphanages around Ukraine. We created an English page in the May issue to introduce endangered animals to children. Young Heroes were very proud to organize a charity fair and collected money for yearly magazine subscriptions for one orphanage and one centre for kids with special needs. Now our Young Heroes plan to design more English pages and give the magic of reading to many orphanages around Ukraine

Odessa Bookhunters

Ukraine

Buying good quality books has become a luxury these days in Ukraine. To help each other enjoy more reading, we started a Book Crossing project in our learning centres. It is a big success! Kids and moms say the project helps them to have access to really interesting books, many of which they could not afford. Our charity fair raised 4500 UAH (about 200 USD) and now a very old children’s library has 40 new books. We gathered 65 kids with books and held the "Readers' Chain" flash mob. We are also writing a book "Odessa through Children's Eyes."

UNITED THROUGH READING

Little reading miracles

Ukraine

Helen Doron English together with The Old Lion Publishing House organized a public reading of the English edition of the book "Who Grows in the Garden". This book is not only an incredibly interesting journey through the garden, in which readers learn about different fruit trees, it is the story of finding your own place in the world. Only by knowing your roots, can you understand the truth about yourself. During the event, children have expanded their vocabulary and had fun. Everyone left the bookstore with new books and new experiences.

At Helen Doron Ružinov LC, we decided with our team of Literally Heroes to organize a bookfest and collect books for donation. First, we organized fun lessons about reading and heroes in books in our Learning Center. We cooperated with the community center, Cultus and we promoted the bookfest in local schools and kindergartens. Our Young Heroes promoted the event in their schools. During the bookfest children could participate in fun activities, like creating bookmarks, creating funny sentences and other games. We managed to collect 89 books and we donated them to the local library and childrens´hospital.

Make a mark - a bookmark!

The Bookmark Masters

Austria

We are six Helen Doron students between 7 and 10 years old. Our idea was to promote reading among our friends and families. In our English class we created bookmarks showing that reading is a superpower and that by reading to someone you can be a hero. Together we handed out more than a hundred bookmarks to our parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, teachers, and friends. The bookmarks should encourage them to read and to remind them that reading is magic and that readers are leaders. We hope that our bookmarks did make a mark!
