What is Chat & Chew?
Chat & Chew is a voluntary reading program for SRE students in 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. Think of it as a book club for kids! Students read three grade-level appropriate books and meet in small groups during lunch to discuss each one. Parent volunteers serve as discussion leaders.
