Alongside our 3 weekly live story sharing sessions, we are really excited to further support families and children in ensuring that our children are reading regularly at home. We also want to guarantee that all of our children have access to age-appropriate texts so that they can practice reading independently. 

It is so important that our learners continue to read and enjoy reading at home during this time. Reading really does open the doorway to so many other possibilities. Don’t forget that even when we are not in school and even during the current lockdown, reading opportunities are everywhere.

To support our families in making reading part of their everyday routines, I have  included the following guide as a way of scaffolding your thinking about reading at home and to support parents/carers to keep talking about reading and encouraging their children to do the same.

Follow the TRUST ideas to talk about anything your child enjoys reading.
