Family Literacy
Talking is Teaching National Campaign
Gratiot/Isabella Great Start Collaborative is a partner for this national campaign. Each week, they publish a Weekly Family Challenge. They have also added a "Secret Monthly Message" that is hidden in each week's Family Challenge. When you access the Weekly Family Challenge each week you can search for the inappropriately capitalized letters and string them together in order for the month, and it will spell out a secret message. The first family to complete the form (which is linked to each inappropriately capitalized letter) with the correct message wins a $10 gift card! The form will be shut off as soon as someone completes it for the month. The Weekly Family Challenge is linked below.
