For many students here in Canada, March Break is just around the corner. It's a time for some well-earned rest, relaxation, and fun. However, just because it's March Break doesn't mean that the learning has to stop. Here are five fun ways you can keep literacy learning alive for yourself and your loved ones over the holiday week. (Oh, and for you University students out there, these tips work great for Reading Week too!)
#1: Take in a good book
We're sorry to start with a bit of a cliche, but honestly, it needs to be said. A terrific book has the power to transport us to new worlds, learn things we may not have considered and even change hearts and minds. So, if you have the time, March Break is a wonderful time to take in a book, especially since the weather can be quite cold.
#2:?Write a short story
Who said readers get to have all the fun? While reading can transport us to new worlds, writing allows us to bring our imagination to life. Writing a short story is an exciting, fun, and creative way to spend time over the March Break.
#3: Go outside and write a poem
While the temperatures outside may be frigid, there is still a profound beauty in nature. There is a reason it has served as a muse to a great many artists. Why not go outside and write a poem about what you are seeing, feeling, etc.?

#4: Play Scrabble
Scrabble is an amazing way to learn and expand your vocabulary. Challenge your friends and see if you can find a way to maximize the number of zs and qs per word!
#5?Learn as a family
Our team believes that learning is a lifelong journey. Whether you are young or old, you always have something to learn, and it's even better to do so as a family. So, whether you draft stories, read books, dissect narrative elements of popular movies, or take the time to catch up on studies, why not do it together?
