It\u2019s the first quarter of the school year, and reading progress is top of mind for many families with students in elementary school.<\/p>\n

Join Planet Word, the International Dyslexia Association, and dyslexia specialist Dustin Tamsen for the Building Literacy Resource Fair. This event kicks off Dyslexia Awareness Month and provides guidance for families of young learners who may be struggling with reading.<\/p>\n

Interact with local literacy professionals and organizations dedicated to supporting students with dyslexia and learning differences. Families will enjoy hands-on demonstrations, expert advice, raffle prizes, pastries, and a kids\u2019 corner. Plus, take home free LitKits filled with tools to make reading practice fun.<\/p>\n

This is a chance to connect with experts, discover community resources, and learn practical strategies to help your K\u20135 reader thrive. While you\u2019re here, don\u2019t miss Planet Word\u2019s kid-friendly, engaging galleries (museum admission<\/a> must be reserved separately).<\/p>\n

Please consider donating<\/a> to help Planet Word support accessible community programming. If you have questions or concerns about accessibility<\/a> needs, contact education@planetwordmuseum.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":10247,"template":"","tags":[69],"class_list":["post-10246","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-featured","event_types-family"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nBuilding Literacy Resource Fair: Making School-to-Home Connections — Planet Word Museum<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/planetwordmuseum.org\/events\/building-literacy-resource-fair-making-school-to-home-connections-2\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Building Literacy Resource Fair: Making School-to-Home Connections — Planet Word Museum\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"It\u2019s the first quarter of the school year, and reading progress is top of mind for many families with students in elementary school.
