Knowing if your child is well enough to go to school
New Ministry of Education Parent Portal
New Ministry of Education Parent Portal
Minister of Education Erica Stanford announced on Sunday 4 May a new parent portal. It is linked here...
"Education is a partnership of what happens in the classroom and what happens at home. Parents, caregivers, and whānau play an important role in supporting their child’s learning and development. The new webspace is designed to make it easier for parents, caregivers, and whānau to access clear and up-to-date information on the school curriculum, assessment practices, and ways they can complement their child’s learning."
'School Shorts' Podcast
'School Shorts' Podcast
New Zealand journalist and mum Melissa Chan-Green presents podcast about learning in NZ schools.
These 'school shorts' provide some really useful insights for whānau about what is happening in schools and why.
"As a parent, I was frequently thinking "huh?" when my son came home talking about terms being used at school that just didn't sound familiar anymore.
With a movement to a new way of learning being rolled out in schools around such countries as NZ, Australia, the U.K, U.S and Canada - I have turned my investigative experience to helping parents decipher it all.
Keen to help your child thrive in reading, writing, spelling and maths? School Shorts has you covered."

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).
