Online Session: 7 Steps to Get Your Child Reading
by Louise Park
Description
Children who start school with no or minimal literacy skills can struggle to close the gap with their peers, and that gap may continue to grow.
Seven simple messages can make a powerful difference to a child’s reading journey. If parents know what these are and how to incorporate them incidentally into a child’s day from birth, it will make the entire literacy path that much more straightforward. And it’s critical that parents invest in their child’s acquisition of these fundamental skills. I believe these seven steps should not be a secret and should be accessible for all parents and carers. When armed with this knowledge, parents are fully equipped to give their children the best possible literacy journey.
