Family Literacy Night Slide Deck
Last updated 2026/02/17
Description
This presentation can be used at a school literacy night for families. The deck introduces Ontario’s shift to structured literacy, explaining how it supports effective reading instruction for all students. Families will learn why early reading screeners are now used in schools, the key literacy skills children need to develop to be proficient readers, and practical ways to support their learning at home.
Curriculum Connection
The Family Literacy Night slide deck supports assessment, evaluation, and reporting by helping educators share clear expectations, observable literacy behaviours, and evidence-informed learning goals with families, enabling meaningful discussions about student progress and ways to support literacy development at home.
