Reading
Remember to read, read, read!
The more reading that your child does, the better their phonics and writing will be!
We have a new scheme of reading books so please refer to the reading schedule to best support your child.
Reading does not have always have to be their reading book every night. Here are some ideas for reading activities that you could do with your child...
-
Reading the food packets in a supermarket.
-
Looking for letters and signs when you are travelling in the car or bus.
-
Finding sounds to read at the park or at the swimming pool.
-
Making and reading sounds with paint water, stones or other craft materials.
