Reading at Home
School Reading books are shared with you throughout the week
Poetry books are updated weekly and in the reading folder to share with you
Each week, we visit the KSS library and bring home 2 books. You are invited to read these with your child.
Children who see family and friends as readers see themselves as a reader too!
Other ways you can support reading at home:
Retelling and acting out your favourite stories or school reading books.
You can; make puppets, use playdough and lego, or use toys you have at home.
