A good start to the day

• Are you ready?

Reading at school...

• Teachers and Teaching Assistants will read with your children at school.

• Later on in the year your children will begin Guided Reading (with Miss Reed).

Reading at home...

• In Year Two we ask that your child reads 2-3 pages each time.

• Discussion is the key! – What might happen next?– Which character do you like best? Why?– Can you see any ‘sounds’ you have been learning

at school in these words?

If you want to read more...

- Choose a larger book from home that can be read over a period of time.

- Visit the local library.- Encourage and support your child to read

everything around them: back of cereal packs, instructions for making things, posters, signs, leaflets, etc...
