Activities you can do with your child at home to help develop their skills include:
- Reading: Complete daily reading with your child and ask them questions during or after. This could include stories or information. You can also join for a free trial to ABC reading Eggs https://readingeggs.com.au/
- Writing: Your child could write a story, an information text, create a poster, create a comic strip or keep a journal.
- Spelling, Grammar and Punctuation: Practise any previous spelling words. Correct and practise any spelling, grammar or punctuation mistakes from their writing.
- Maths: Visit ABC Education and filter the maths resources or games based on your child’s year level or ability – https://education.abc.net.au/home#!/resources/-/mathematics
