Activities during the Week of Literacy
Literacy Week is organized by the Reading & Writing Foundation with the aim of drawing attention to the 2,5 million low-literate people in the Netherlands. TopTaal organizes various activities to contribute to raising awareness of the importance of taal.
Speed date
One of the activities that TopTaal organizes a speed dating game day. In collaboration with care centers, TopTaal Speed Dating Game Day. A fun afternoon or morning between seniors and our students (newcomers to the Netherlands). The goal of this day is to provide a fun day for seniors and students to practice speaking Dutch. taalThis creates a win-win situation. And who knows, maybe even long-term friendships will develop.
These are private activities.
Musical reading afternoon
More than 1 in 10 children leave primary school with insufficient taalmastery. Reading aloud is important. That's why TopTaal During Literacy Week, an interactive musical reading afternoon for children aged 2 to 8. The musical reading performance will be given by Maria Romijn.
The show
The reading afternoon with the performance 'Vast' after the book by Oliver Jeffers is on 11 September. It's about a kite that gets stuck in a tree. Fred tries to untie it with his shoe, but it also gets stuck. He throws a cat, a sink, a rhinoceros, a lighthouse… .. into the tree. And everything is stuck! How does this end?
Book Fair
Employees of TopTaal We collected books to give every child a book. Of course, we also thought about the parents. The book market will follow the reading performance.
Curious about how the story ends? Come and experience it! Everyone is welcome.
