Good reading for you =)

Kia ora - with your child's mid-year goal setting coming up this week I thought you might be interested in having a read of the following:
From the parents section of the Ministry of Education site:

"You play an important part in supporting your child's learning.
 To help you do this here is information about the National Standards in reading, writing and mathematics and how they work in a school context, and tips on how you can support your child’s learning during their third year at school through interactive, fun, easy, everyday activities that you can do at home, and while out and about."
After 3 years at school

By the end of year 4

ENJOY THE LAST weekend of the holidays - phew - time surely goes fast (big smiley face!!).
Take care & I'll see your gorgeous child/ren on Monday morning. (I have the 8am meeting Monday morning re: if I'm not in class).
