Do you dream of your child reading a chapter book before bed every night…OR…snuggling with you while you read aloud? (Even big kids benefit from oral reading by the adult in their life!) Do you wish your child would fall in love with reading for pleasure? Is it hard to find the time and place in your busy day to focus on this?
Kanata Learning Centre offers once weekly novel study sessions. Your child comes for 50 minutes per week to chat about the book, write out some thoughts, learn new vocabulary. They bring the book home to read a chapter, (or more) over the course of the week. Books being read this summer are Charlotte’s Web for the younger students, and The Golden Compass for the older students. Your child will be working with an energetic fun educator and the goal is to create lifelong readers-for-pleasure! Pop an email to: office@kanatalearningcentre.com for more info. Let’s turn some pages!
Bring your family and connect with other families, let the children play and enjoy a great show from Junkyard Symphony
