Helping Beginner Readers

Welcome back to the Library for 2016! 


It has been a very busy few weeks for us as we have met over 60 brand new potential readers with our Kindy classes starting library lessons last week. It is always lovely to see the enthusiasm with which younger students approach reading and the fearlessness and joy they express when interacting with books.  Our aim is to help you as parents to foster and maintain this love for reading from a very young age.  

Often at the beginning of a child's learning journey, parents will have some worries about how they can help their child to learn to read. There are some practical and enjoyable ways to help your child to read. This short video from Australian Website School A-Z offers some excellent advice for mum's and dad's new to schools looking for ways to help their children read.





If you don't have time to watch the video, here are the main ideas in a nutshell: 

1. How to help your child to read:



2. How to help your child choose a book:

Please feel free to visit us in the OLC Library anytime!
