Reading

Reading is such an essential part of a child's modern education. Not only does reading unlock new worlds of wonder and imagination, it allows us to learn new things independently.  First children learn to read, then they read to learn. Once they can read using phonics to decode words accurately, we then want them to read words on sight with automaticity then as their understanding of the text develops, with prosody. 

 

Reading is arguably the single most important thing you can do with your child, and there is no age limit! Reading to bumps in the womb to teenagers is still a great bonding experience, and just lovely!.

 

Below are some useful resources that will help you with reading at home.
