Reach Out and Read

Reach Out and Read is an evidence-based nonprofit organization that promotes early literacy and school readiness in pediatric exam rooms nationwide by giving new books to children and advice to parents about the importance of reading aloud.

Reach Out and Read builds on the unique relationship between parents and medical providers to develop critical early reading skills in children, beginning at 6 months of age. The 3.8 million families served annually by Reach Out and Read read together more often, and their children enter kindergarten with larger vocabularies, with stronger language skills, and better prepared to succeed.

DnDMelt’s Dungeons and Dragons Beginner’s boot camp 201 - the second part of the DnD 4e Beginner’s Boot camp series.

$10/person

Saturday JANUARY 14, 2012

Time: 1-4pm

Now that you’ve taken DnDMelt’s Beginner’s Boot Camp 101 & have a character, how do you use it? What do all of the numbers on the sheet really mean? What are actions? What is initiative? WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?!?!

Here will will take you step by step through a fighting encounter and show you how to use all the cool abilities you have chosen. Powers, Utilities, Feats, Skills. You got to pick them, now its time to use them.

The second part of the class we will show you different ways to utilize your character. Different ways to play. Ways to think outside of the box. Do you really need to fight that dragon? Maybe you could talk your way out of the situation. Maybe you should think your way out?
