Ms. Jodi's Storytime
I have to admit, there’s nothing more enjoyable
than hearing children laughing while listening to a story being read
aloud to them. As you walk through the halls of OHE, you’ll often hear a
theatrical voice echoing through the open rooms
followed by chants of laughter. This is the sound of Ms. Jodi Picardat
reading to our beloved OHE students. Jodi is one of our many
volunteers who dedicate their time and talent to Oak Hill. It’s
definitely a literary treat for our students, and you’re
sure to fall in love each story she reads! She brings her characters
to life with her unique voices and infectious energy. I remember the
first time she came to read to my class, and I thought to myself, “Yes! A
bit of free time to grade some papers!” Little
did I know that I would spend the whole time listening to the story,
just as engaged as my students; smiling and laughing along with them! I
can’t imagine the endless amount of students who have grown to love
reading, simply because of Ms. Jodi’s impact!
She has introduced our students to a variety of genres, authors, and
characters. Therefore, students are even more excited to venture to the
library to get the next book in the sequel or read another story by the
same author.
