Here are some great
tips to start children on
the road to reading:
Visit the library every week.
Make sure your children see you reading. Keep lots of books, newspapers
and magazines at home.
Write a letter with your child.
Solve word puzzles together.
Make a shopping list together.
Turn off the T.V.

Learning is a family affair.
Book family time to read with your children every day.
Help them become good readers and good learners.

Family Literacy Night at
Ealing
January 30, 2003
Family Literacy Week 2002
More than 150 families made a poster together!
Each family received poster paper to take home during the week
of January 21
to create a poster together at home.
The theme : "MY FAMILY"
There were photos, hand (and paw!) prints, collage, drawings, poems and
stories...
A celebration of families and literacy!
Everybody helped!
Mom, Dad, Grandma, babies, even dogs and cats helped to
make a poster!

To promote Family
Literacy Day, Ealing participates in
Drop Everything and Read
When you hear the hand bell ring, drop whatever you're doing and
pick up something to read. You won't know when it will happen,
so be sure to carry a book or magazine wherever you go!

Parents have a strong influence
on their children's attitudes
towards literacy and learning.
This influence is particularly important from birth to age
six, and there is considerable research showing that substantial literacy learning takes place as a result of family interaction and activities before the child enters school.
