Rockin' in Hay River

We sent out the Music and Literacy How-to-Kit in September but omitted an important page: The recognition of Jessica Latour and Growing Together. The NWT Literacy Council would like to thank Jessica and Growing Together for their ideas and activities and for inspiring us to develop a How-to-Kit about music and literacy.

Jessica will present her Rockin' Rhythm workshop at the upcoming Family Literacy Training Institute being held in Yellowknife at the end of November. Participants last year had this to say:

  • “I enjoyed every minute of the workshop.”
  • “Jessica is a lovely person with great ideas and real enthusiasm.”
  • “You have given me some great ideas to use in my program.”
