Dr. Kathleen Cadwallader and her pre-K staff and students created beautiful art celebrating books and Thanksgiving. The art adorned the cafeteria walls and was the backdrop for the BMAB Franklin parent education program and a delicious Thanksgiving lunch prepared by the Learning Center cafeteria staff. Michaelin and Dave Watts and Carol Barfield led the program that focused on teaching parents and caregivers the importance of reading aloud to children from birth. The highlight of the training program featured pre-kindergarten parent Michelle Creek, in photo at right, capturing the attention and delight of the attending family members, old and young alike, through reading aloud with great expression the children’s book, “Are You My Mother?” Meanwhile BMAB Franklin volunteers Caty Greene, Carrie Kienzle, Tom Siculiano, Despina Williams and Sally Crown read aloud to the pre- kindergarten and HeadStart children in their classrooms. Each child was given a gift of a child’s book to bring home for their very own. Participating Learning Center teachers were Val Miller, Tammy Sasnett, Mary Williams, and Cathy Wood with their staff: Nancy Sewell, Aileen Boatwright, Carol Wolff, Marcia Thomas, Mary Sewell, Ruby Benjamin, Jeannie Wood and Joy Townes.
