The single biggest way to support children academically and emotionally at home is to encourage them to read. Read our blog Parental Engagement — Reading at Home for tips on how to get started and how to encourage families to have fun sharing books at home, even after children start to read on their own.
Reading together in a fun and relaxed way not only helps children get hooked on reading, but it is also one of the best ways for families to bond, spend quality time together and make memories that will last a lifetime. Sharing books with children and talking about the story will also help to deepen understanding and develop language.
Our free downloadable leaflet for parents and carers includes ideas and inspiration on how to get started or improve their experiences of sharing books at home. This free PDF leaflet can be printed and sent home in book bags, or attached to emails/newsletters and sent to parents directly.
