Supporting colleagues to increase parental engagement and understanding of how children learn to read.
- Understanding the three reading modes (read to, read with, read by), and why each is important;
- Comprehension: not “understanding all the words”; understanding the text;
- Engaging in dialogue around texts;
- Supporting decoding through play;
- Why reading for pleasure / choosing to read is so important;
- Encouraging reading range (beyond books)
