Setting up a learning environment

How you can support your child

  • Set aside regular time for reading

  • Every home is different but it’s important to provide a quiet and comfortable space in which to learn and read.

  • Make sure the atmosphere is relaxed and happy

  • Make sure there are no distractions - e.g TV

  • Give lots and lots of praise

  • Monitor communications from teachers.


If completing online reading or online games, it should be a place:

  • that can be quiet at times

  • that has a strong internet signal, if possible

  • where you or another adult is present as you would normally when your child is online, dependent on age

  • Monitor how much time your child is spending online.
