What can you do at home? Use the resources provided to help support your child’s learning at home. Encourage your child to complete their homework independently. In school children segment to spell using their robot arms and phonetic attempts at spellings are celebrated. Read daily at home – 1 or 2 pages. Play games – Hide words around the house for your child to find. Inform us about any extra curricular activities that children are involved in e.g. gymnastics. Use parent share to create your own observations to share with us at school. We will use this to support our judgements. For example: ‘ Joe made me wash my hands before I cooked tea because he told me germs would make me poorly.’
