Reading with your child
Hi everyone,
Welcome to Term 3!
If you are free on Wednesday 10th August and would like some fantastic tips on reading with your child:
Pause, Prompt, Praise
Our Resource Teacher of Literacy (RTLit), Murray Greig, is running a parent's session in the school staff room on Wednesday 10th August. The session will run from 9.00 - 10.30am.

We are going to be working really hard on reading and spelling this term. Please encourage your child to read at home, you don't need to be a long time spent on reading or spelling, often quick, snappy sessions are just as beneficial as longer ones. Especially if they are regular! Practicing spelling words in the car, putting up spelling lists at home (especially on the fridge or on their doors) and getting your child to read a recipe to you are some ways of encouraging them to read and spell.
This week we have been making up sentences to help us spell words, one that Brie made for down - donkey's only wear necklaces.
The best way to get your child reading/writing/spelling - make it fun!
Have a great week!
