How to engage in home reading successfully

How to enjoy home reading over four nights


Your child will be bringing home a selection of books that will support the practice of skills they have been taught in the classroom by their teacher. We aim for them to be able to read these books comfortably and without much support. The below ideas provided are a guide or suggestions for families that are looking to support with knowing what skills most likely align to the ranges of text levels children may be bringing home. Feel free to use some of them to support your home reading, or contact your class teacher for more specific skills that your child may be currently working on.

Level 1-5 Books

Level 6 - 11 Books

Level 12 - 18 Books

Level 19 - 24 Books

Level 25+ Books

At this level students may be bringing home chapter books with more length and detail. We encourage you to explore interesting vocabulary, discuss comprehension questions and have you child retell the story at the end of a chapter or at the end of the nights reading rather than only at the end of the book.
