Reading

Reading at Home:

Students are expected to read each night. Students are encouraged to read a variety of text types, including story books, information texts, websites, apps, and newspaper articles. Students should be reading for 10-15 minutes each night, followed by 2 comprehension questions from the sheet provided by your teacher.

After you have read with your child have a discussion around the text. Some prompts could include:

  • What was the story mostly about?
  • Who were the main characters, where was it set etc?
  • Why did certain events happen?
  • How did the characters feel?
  • Why would the author write the text and why?
