January 27 is Family Literacy Day!
The
theme this year is ‘Learn at Play Every Day’
Family
Literacy Day is a celebrated across Canada to raise awareness of the importance
of reading and engaging in other literacy-related
activities as a family. Literacy organizations, schools, libraries and media
groups host literacy-themed events and activities across the country in honour
of this special initiative.
There are many
ways to celebrate Family Literacy Day in Calgary. Some ideas are:
·
Check out the Family Literacy Day: Read, Sing, and Play! events at the Calgary
Public Library. Get registered!
·
The CanLearn
Society invites you to celebrate learning as a family, creating photos or
drawings of family activities and sending them in for posting. Share your
family learning ideas with each other, and have fun doing it!
·
The Further Education
Society has family learning kits and downloadable family activity sheets!
So simple!
Play and Learn
together!
