3 23.9.14 3 Introduction –this information is to be given as hand-out, so no need to take notes. The teaching of reading. Our new curriculum and how we promote strong skills to learn. Parents as partners A snapshot of school so far….

4 23.9.14 4 The Value of Reading- Mrs Vine Promoting a love and interest in reading. Comprehension: understanding pictures and words for story and information books. Decoding: reading actual words using letter sounds (phonics) or whole words (sight words). Star time: combining all three elements with a focus on ensuring children have sound phonic skills.

5 23.9.14 5 Driving to Reading Success- Turning complex skills into a fun and exciting shared play experience. Why all the toys and fun on your tables…….? Well, there is a lot or crucial information to take in tonight, so as we do with the children when we need to hold their attention and motivate them to learn, we have tried to grab your attention and have found ways to help you overcome the barriers or sticky bits. This also mirrors the way we continue the reading journey through to independence – by having a system that supports the children and their families in a way that has continuous guidance and a self motivational element. We all need to understand the basics of the process and both school and home need to fully commit with the child to make it an enjoyable experience. As teacher, despite the fact that teaching children to read is the most time consuming in terms of assessments, target setting, resource management and individual time spent with the children –it is however the very best bit of the job, gives the most satisfaction and we know how valuable it is for the children in terms of their access to the wider curriculum at school and their life skills. Just look at all the Development Matters Statements that your child is EXPECTED to achieve in relation to reading by the end of June in the Reception Year.
