Talawanda LitCamp- Mrs. James

I'm writing to invite you to enroll your student in the TSD Summer LitCamp from June 6 - June 10. The program is FREE and transportation is provided.

This program is a great way to prevent summer slide and help your student stay summer strong!

- How? Free transportation from area locations (see digital form for exact pickup/dropoff spots)

- When? 9:30-12:00, June 6 - June 10, 2022

- Who? LitCamp is open to current PreK students moving on to KG, through current 5th graders heading to TMS

- Why? To support and motivate our striving readers to keep reading and writing this summer!

LitCamp makes school feel more like a summer camp to create fun, high-quality literacy learning:

- Opening and closing "Campfires" with songs, read alouds, and opportunities to perform

- Libraries of books and activities to support the "7 Strengths" for reading success

- DAILY LESSONS, Small Groups, and 1:1 teacher support for reading and writing

- Daily snacks and outdoor exploration

- FREE BOOKS for students to self-select and keep for reading all summer

LitCamp does not conflict with the dates for OLT's Super Summer Readers program in Oxford. More information on this coming soon!

If you have questions about LitCamp contact Kathy James, Literacy Coordinator, at jamesk@talawanda.org.

Thanks for considering this great opportunity for your student
