Reading
The more reading that your child does, the better their phonics and writing will be!
Reading does not 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.
Your child has a reading day so look out for a book or game on that day!
Maths
