Yesterday's ASCD Brief included the following reference. I thought  
you might be interested in taking a look at it. A quick glance  
revealed some activity suggestions that seemed applicable both for  
home or school. It is available online.

The new book Family Literacy Experiences explores the power of the  
home-school connection. Structured around text genres in the home, it  
invites teachers to recognize diverse literacy experiences outside  
the classroom and shows how to use skills from each genre to drive  
meaningful reading and writing instruction. Click here to browse the  
entire book online!
