How can you help with reading?

  • Read with your child at home as often as you can – we cannot stress

enough how important it is, it will help them achieve in all other

  • subjects. Ask them to read to you but keep reading to them too –

it teaches them intonation and fluency.

  • Ask them questions about what they have read – question stems

provided.

  • Read a variety of materials – poems, newspapers, leaflets, non-

fiction books. Make sure they are challenged where possible!

  • Help them to understand and use new vocabulary – the more words

they learn the more links they can make.

How can you help?

  • Please ‘drum home’ the importance of capital

letters and full-stops.

  • Keep practising spellings on weekly basis – the

new LSCWC method is bespoke to your child and focuses on their weakness in particular.

  • Encourage your children to learn new

vocabulary.

  • Practise handwriting.
  • Value their homework – is it their best writing?
  • Use standard English.
  • Oh, and READ with them!
