“I am always looking for new and fun ways for children to read with pleasure, I start with the decoration of the classroom library, then I use my puppets at different times, such as reading aloud and improving intonation, I look for different materials so that they are motivated to read, like Panchita, a little hen that asks questions about the topics in readings, and according to the reading that we do, the questions are in its eggs that I represent with plastics, and they go on to take an egg and the question that arises must be answered”
