READING WITH YOUR CHILD

At school our expectation is that children will read regularly at home with parents and / or family members.
Reading at home can happen in many ways:

• Adults or older children reading aloud to children
• Adults or older children listening to children read
• Discussing the book your child is reading
• Making up stories together.

This information below summarises the importance of reading at home every night and the huge difference it makes to your child’s education.
Reading improves a child’s vocabulary and their writing.

Children who are read to and read daily make the best progress in school.
