Family literacy month is an opportunity for families to learn and read together. Family literacy is about family members enhancing reading and writing skills through activities that they may do together.

Check out the calendar of ways to celebrate literacy throughout the month (printed copies are available at the Underwood Infobox). Try one, try some, try them all!

Over the course of the month, be sure to take a moment to snap a selfie (or photograph) with your family reading or participating in one of the daily activities, and then send it to Ms. Stacey Mann, Underwood Literacy Specialist!

At the end of the month, we will display the photos to celebrate family literacy at Underwood School.

Thanks so much for your participation! Please let Ms. Mann know if you have any questions at faneuils@newton.k12.ma.us
