Volunteering a few hours each week is an important way of investing in the future of our society. I chose to spend my time working with elementary school children helping them to learn to read. Developing good reading skills will help these students open new worlds to them, and help them succeed in life. Students who are not good readers cannot keep up with their studies. They will not understand the lessons; they will come to school unprepared; they will not be able to perform. By learning to read, students will be equal with their classmates. They will be active participants in class.
Books on different lifestyles, occupations, cultures, or governments will open new doors to students. Students who cannot read will only know what they see around them. Students who can read will be able to travel to new worlds and experience new ideas without ever leaving their classrooms. Readers, especially good readers, have the whole universe open to them. They will have the possibility to learn any job that interests them.
By volunteering to help an elementary school children learn to read, I am helping them not only today, but also for the rest of his or her life. I am helping them keep pace with their peers and explore the world and themselves through books.
7. Reading books of different genres will give students the possibility to open the whole universe.

I am completely keen on reading. I try to read every day at least a few pages. I like fantasy stories and some adventurous stories. And there is a story of that kind I am eager to read over and over again. Its name is “Harry Potter.”
The story tells about a little boy Harry who lives in a family of his aunt. One day he finds out that he is a wizard and should go to study to a school of magic — Hogwarts. And that’s where the story begins.
In the following 7 parts we get to know what a great wizard Harry is. He meets new friends, studies, does sport and conquer the most evil magician in the world. These books teach how to be friendly, loyal and strong. They show us how to face difficulties and how important a family and friends are.
I love this book for all of this. I have already read it a few of times. And I know that I will definitely read it once again.

История рассказывает о маленьком мальчике Гарри, который живет в семье своей тети. Однажды он узнает, что он волшебник и ему необходимо ехать учиться в школу волшебства Хогвартс. И вот, где начинается история.
В последующих 7 частях мы узнаем, насколько Гарри великий волшебник. Он встречает новых друзей, учится, занимается спортом и побеждает самого злого волшебника в мире. Эти книги учат, как быть дружелюбным, преданным и сильным. Они показывают, как преодолевать трудности, и как важны семья и друзья.
