Did You Know?

November is Family Literacy Month!

Family literacy is the connection of families learning together.

It is more than teaching a child to read.

Family literacy includes: reading and sharing stories, talking and singing together, playing, exploring, learning, and creating opportunities for children and caregivers to learn side by side.

The best part?

You don’t need extra time, special materials, or a lesson plan. The everyday moments you already share can become learning moments. The activities in this calendar are simple ways to Read, Talk, Play, and Learn together from cooking and counting to telling family stories, playing games, taking a walk, and reading a favorite book.
