At the close of the semester, the Education Department hosted A Night of Stories, a joyful literacy event led by Dr. Michele Vanasse’s Children’s Literature class. Families enjoyed dinner and activities before children (27 in total) broke into small groups to write and illustrate their own mini books with the help of Carroll pre-service teachers. While the children created, Dr. Joe Helbling facilitated a parent workshop. The evening concluded with an award ceremony where all children received certificates and a small journal.
