FAMILY LITERACY EVENT OPEN HOUSE IS THIS THURSDAY

We are also hosting a Family Literacy Event on Thursday, April 25 from 4:30 – 6:00 where families are invited into their child’s classroom to play literacy games, have their child teach them some of the literacy stations they do at school, do some shared writing, etc.

This is an open house format with no sign up required. Families can come in any time between 4:30 – 6:00 that works for them. You can stay for a little bit of time or a longer bit of time, depending on what works for you! 

When families come into the school, they will be given an entry sheet that their child can complete to enter to win one of six literacy game prizes as well as a Literacy Bingo sheet for families to take home. 

We look forward to seeing you Thursday!
