It's the most important thing you can
do to help you child succeed.
Research evidence shows that your involvement in your
child's reading and learning is more important than
anything else in helping them to fulfil their potential.
2.
Books contain new words
that will help build your child's language and understanding.
Children who are familiar with books and stories before
they start school are better prepared to cope with the
demands of formal literacy teaching.
3.
Reading together is fun
and helps build relationships.
4.
The impact lasts a lifetime. Readers
are more confident and have greater job opportunities.
5.
Children learn by example, so if they see you
reading, they are likely to want to join in.
Reading with children, or talking about what they
have read, is a wonderful way to show that it is an
important and valued way to spend free time.
