Learning At Home

Learning at home

Parents/guardians engaged in learning play an important role in developing positive attitudes towards education for their children. It builds motivation and confidence as learners and fosters enjoyment of learning. You can help your child's learning every day, by supporting and encouraging them and being excited by their learning.

Each week we will add some ideas for your child/ren to keep them developing their literacy and numeracy skills at home or items to have a conversation about.

The Education Department has a fantastic resource available to assist your child every day. Please click the link to access the Literacy and Numeracy at home document

Maths

Explore maths everyday with your children as you walk, talk and play. See the beauty of maths everywhere! When walking, talking, looking and listening, families can explore and use mathematics every day. Introduce children to maths in the outdoors by counting steps, finding numbers and shapes and mapping your path. The possibilities are endless!
