Literacy
Are you confused by the 'jargon' schools use about literacy - such as 'decoding', 'comprehension', 'inferential thinking' and 'proof-reading'? Have you ever wondered why fluency and a good vocabulary are so important for your child's learning? Would you like to find out how to support your child with their spoken communication, reading and writing?
Well, now you can find out about all of these Literacy topics - and more - with our brand new Family Learning Videos. All parents and carers are invited to watch and listen to this series of short, animated videos featuring voiceovers provided by our very own St. Margaret's pupils. We hope you enjoy them and maybe learn something new too!
