How Parents Can Support Reading 

Throughout the Summer

It is important to make reading a priority in our daily lives. Setting a time of day where the whole family stops and reads helps to provide our children with a consistent schedule and routine, while ensuring that reading does not get lost during the summer months.

Attached below, you will find a presentation from a workshop presented on January 30th 2025 to parents and guardians. The presentation is chock-full of helpful information, research, and tips to support our readers at home and during the summer.
