Home Reading
Reading helps children with their knowledge, understanding and language. The children are taught to read in school however it is important that you encourage your child to read at home daily and listen to them read a couple of pages of their book every night.
Reading books will be changed every Friday and every week the children will also choose a library book to read over the weekend.
Click the video link below for tips on how to support your child with reading at home.
Parents you must sign your child’s reading diaries so your children can be rewarded with a stamp for their efforts.
Phonics
The children will be learning Phase 6 Phonics daily.
Some children will also be receiving additional boosters to help with their reading of Phase 3 – Phase 5 phonics. To help your child at home you can access the Phonics Play website which has some brilliant games to play.
