As your family reads this summer, OCPS encourages you to share the literacy message via Twitter. Using the hashtag, #OCPSreads, we hope our students (over 13 years of age) and parents will share what you are reading, where you are reading and how much you are reading. Utilize the hashtag when posting pictures of books and fun places that students read over the summer, too.
Visit the OCPS LaunchPad to access the Beanstack app for your students to complete fun reading themed tasks found on our Summer Reading bingo board. When students complete enough activities and earn a bingo, they are entered to win great prizes.
Here are a few easy ways to include reading as part of your every day during the summer, even when you are on the go!
