Reading Workshops for MP2 and MP3

AP1 hosted another successful reading workshop on Thursday morning, this time for parents of children in MP2 and MP3. Mr Jonathan, English Subject Leader, guided the parents through how reading is approached for children in these mileposts as well as sharing ideas for reading at home. With older children we often assume that once they can read independently, there is no need for parents to hear them read. Mr Jonathan stressed the importance of not only listening to your child read all the way up the school but also the importance of the discussion that the text can generate and how this helps comprehension skills and language development. For other top tips, please click on the links for a copy of the handouts from the presentation or take a look at the presentation itself which is on the English Blog and linked below.
