Parent Information Session
How Children Learn to Read and Write
Dear Parents
We are presenting an information session on how children develop skills in literacy and what you can do to support them with their literacy learning at home. We will talk about the stages of writing and reading from beginning to fluent, looking at various examples and discussing the importance of building a foundation and developing strategies. This information session will be held in the school hall on Thursday 5th March 7.30 – 9.00pm.
If you are wishing to help in the classroom attendance at this session together with a short follow up session covering the expectations of being a classroom helper will be most beneficial. This follow up briefing will be held on Friday 17th April at 3.00 – 3.30pm in the school LIBRARY.
If you wish to attend the information session(s) please sign your name on the form outside each of the prep classrooms or at the office. This is to give us an approximate idea of numbers.
A similar session on how children develop numeracy skills will be held in Term 2.
