Supporting Learning At Home

We have included a number of links for whānau who want to find out more about supporting their child's learning at home. You might find it useful to look at the suggestions above and below your child's year level too.

Please see your child's whānau teacher if you have any questions. 

Year 1 - Reading & Writing and Maths

One of the tips for reading is to break unknown words into sounds. The link here takes you to a video which outlines the sounds we use.

When we talk about reading and spelling words we focus on sounds (there are 44-45), rather than the letter name (there are 26).
