Dear Parents/Carers,
Today your child will come home with a reading diary and reading book. The book is linked to your child’s phonics group and is similar to the book they are reading in school. Please try to listen to your child read as much as possible, and record what they have read in their diary. Encourage them to sound out and blend unfamiliar words, and ask them questions about what is happening in the book.
The books will be changed every Tuesday and Friday, but children need to have their book and diary in school every day.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Many thanks,
The Year 1 Team
