Read with Me
Parents and Carers are invited into the school to read with the Nursery, Reception and KS1 children. This happens weekly from 8:50am to 9:10am.
Wednesday - Reception
Thursday - Nursery & Year 2
Friday - Year 1
Every term at Livingstone we have a ‘Read With Me’ assembly and the children receive a free book of their choice and a book mark to celebrate their reading successes.
Tips for helping your child to enjoy books:
- Encourage your child to look at a books before he or she can read words e.g. looking at pictures.
- Visit the library as often as possible
- Schedule a regular time for reading - perhaps when you get home from school or just before bed.
- Borrow or buy dual-language books if English isn’t your family’s first language - you can talk about books and stories, and develop a love for them, in any language.
- Look for books on topics that you know your child is interested in - maybe dragons, insects, cookery or a certain sport.
- Make sure that children’s books are easily accessible at home.
