A quick post this week...
All home readers and library books are to be returned back to school as soon as possible so that they can be checked and prepared for next year. Even though students won't be able to read school books it is still highly important that they continue reading leading up to Christmas and over the holidays to maintain and improve their reading standard.
Ideas for Summer Reading
- Visit your local library: Mornington Peninsula Libraries run programs to encourage reading over the summer and you receive prizes for reading certain amounts of books. Borrow a variety of books including picture books, fiction and non-fiction
- Read together: Find a book that you will both enjoy and take in turns reading pages and discussing what is happening.
- Buy a book for Christmas: Choose a book that your child will enjoy and have fun reading. Children at this age love reading funny books (Andy Griffiths, Tom Gates Series, Captain Underpants) and books about their interests including sport and animals.
- Break the boredom: When your child has nothing to do, read a book instead of turning to video games!
Their are lots of exciting things happening over the next couple of weeks including transition activities and the school concert!
