Starting School: Practical ways to support your child's learning

by Carol Reece

The essential handbook for all parents who want to support their child’s learning upon starting school. Carol Reece uses her experience both as a primary school teacher and as a mother to give invaluable advice and expert know-how on developing reading, writing, phonics and mathematics skills in the home, car and when out and about. Her very practical approach details step by step activities and games that can very easily be completed using items from around the home. Carol uses best practice to explain the educational value of the games and activities. The games and activities include ‘challenges’ to further develop skills and enable parents to tailor the activities to meet their child’s level of ability. This book also includes useful links to websites where additional resources and information can be viewed or downloaded free. This book is a must for all parents who have children in the Early Years Foundation Stage in England.
