About
Active programming, grant writing and reader recognition are just a few of the exciting activities developed by Heather Smith. The programs include Dance Me a Story which encourages children ages 3 to 6 to act out a classic fairy tale through dance; Danger Club for children ages 8 to 12 features science experiments; and Super Readers Council provides children with discussions skills by creating book talks and book trailers. Her grant writing provides funding for Parent-Child Workshops where early childhood professionals work with parents and caregivers and Teen Reading Lounge, an interactive literacy and art program for teens. Additionally, Heather has presented I Can Read Wall of Fame as a poster session at the 2012 Pennsylvania Library Association Annual Conference
