Encourage them to point out words they know, read sentences on their own, identify sounds in
different words.
• Try including 10 to 15 minutes reading every day.
Writing
If you have access to ICT follow the link below https://www.mystorybook.com/books/new/
With your child create a story. This could be done as a picture book and they tell the story in
their own words orally or with the addition of text.
Provide writing materials for the children to write e.g. pencils/pens/colouring
pencils/markers/paper/card/copy etc.
Allow the children to do free writing where they can decide what they would like to write. They may
need suggestions or guidance on this e.g.
1. create a postcard
2. write a shopping list
3. write a letter
4. diary entry
5. write a story.
