Horse Powered Book Club

In a small group, kids develop confidence in sharing their ideas, learn from each other, and strengthen their reading skills through discussion.

​

They practice expressing their thoughts, connecting the story to their own experiences, and exploring different perspectives. This helps them think more deeply about what they read and improve reading comprehension.

​

Kids also get to socialize with like-minded friends who share their love of horses. ​Each Horse Powered Book Club session features a different book chosen to match various reading levels.

​

Marina is certified in the Horse-Powered Reading curriculum. We serve San Luis Obispo County, including Paso Robles, Atascadero, Morro Bay, Templeton, Arroyo Grande, and Pismo Beach.

Horse Powered Reading

Horse Powered Reading, created by Dr. Michele Pickel in 2012, is a unique, research-backed curriculum that combines equine-assisted learning with proven educational strategies. Dr. Pickel incorporated the Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association (EAGALA) model to create a program that engages your child’s mind, body, and emotions.
