    Helping at Home

    There are various ways you can support your child with their learning at home. Please see some suggested ideas below for each subject:

    In maths, we encourage that you focus on social interactions activities like board and dice games to develop your child's number and calculation skills at home. Your child will develop their mathematical language and reasoning through these interactions. Click here for some suggestions.

    In science, we will be learning about animals including humans, as well as light. 

    In English, we encourage you to hear your child read daily. Please read with your child for ten – fifteen minutes every evening and record this in their Reading Record. 

    Talk! Discuss the day and future plans. Please discuss illustrations and the plot, and encourage your child to express an opinion and to give reasons for it as this will help them to voice their ideas confidently and benefit them when they need to write their own stories or to write persuasively.
