Read, Write Inc. workshop
for parents 6th December 2012
Helping your child to
read.
Dear Parents/Guardians
Building on the continuing
success of the Read, Write Inc programme and the well attended workshops in
July and October; we would like to invite you to our latest reading workshop
for parents. For those of you that were unable to attend our October session, we
would like to provide an opportunity to attend an evening reading workshop in
Burnaby Hall on Thursday 6th December from 6.30pm until 7.15pm.
At Walkley we share your desire
for reading and writing to be at the centre of your child’s development, and
our commitment to this continues with an opportunity for support and guidance
on reading with your child at home.
You will be given guidance on
do’s and don’ts for reading with your child, including:
·
Helping your
child to decode (sound out) words using pure sounds.
·
Recognising words
that will be hard to read (can’t be sounded out).
·
Choosing quality
storybooks - How to paint a picture with words to enhance comprehension.
·
Where to find
resources and support at home.
We believe this will be a
really helpful and useful workshop that will arm you with the tools to support
the way reading and writing is taught in school through the Read, Write Inc
programme.
If
you would like more information and advice on phonics before the workshop,
visit the parent support website; Oxford Owl at www.oxfordowl.co.uk
