MATHS IS ANOTHER KEY TO LEARNING!

Maths is another key to learning.
So try to make maths as much fun as possible - games, puzzles and jigsaws are a great way to start. It's also important to show how we use maths skills in our everyday lives and to involve your child in this.

READING IS THE KEY TO LEARNING!!

Reading is vital. 
Research shows that it's the single most important thing you can do to help your child learn. So read little and often. Put aside some time for it every day. Think of ways to make reading fun. 

READING AT HOME MATTERS!

READING REALLY MATTERS!

Children who read for pleasure are likely to do significantly better at school than their peers, according to new research from the Institute of Education (IOE). The IOE study, which is believed to be the first to examine the effect of reading for pleasure on cognitive development over time, found that children who read for pleasure made more progress in maths, vocabulary and spelling than those who rarely read.
