Ideas to help your child with reading at home

Here are some extension ideas to help your child’s reading and activities to do with the books.

· Pick a page and ask them to read it without showing them the picture.

· Cover a word they have read and ask them to spell it.

· Read the pages out of order.

· Write some of the words on a piece of paper and ask them to read it out of context.

· Ask them to sound out any unfamiliar words or use the picture to help them work it out.
