Please look at the pictures with your child and discuss the story with them. They will also come home with their yellow reading record. You need to write the date, title of the book and any comment you would like to make about their reading. It is really important that you read with your child as often as you can. When you have finished reading each book, swap it for another book from the lilac box. When your child is ready to move on to books with words I will send them home with an appropriate book. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
