Home learning
To support your child's learning at home you should:
- Share stories every day, ask questions about the pictures
- Involve your child with day to day tasks such as cooking and tidying up
- Draw pictures together, practise name writing
- Encourage independence with self-help tasks such as toileting, dressing and feeding
- Encourage positive behaviour, have clear boundaries
- Limit screen time
Please find a suggested daily timetable as well as weekly activities below...
