The first month of the year is always an exciting time. Sharing great stories and reading wonderful books can bring out the imagination in anyone!
September is a time for me the teacher, to get to know your child. What they like and don't like, and how I can support them in their learning. it can also be a stressful time for your child, particularly if they are not feeling confident in their literacy skills. i encourage you to read every night with your child. You can even take turns reading to each other. Go to this link for other ways to help your child become a great, confident reader: |
