This term the Kindies will be receiving a story book from the school to take home that will aim to develop their comprehension and language skills. Most importantly a love for storybooks. This is the process-
- The Comprehension Packs will be given out on one of their Kindy days during the week and they get to keep them until swap over day which will be on their Monday each fortnight e.g Kindy Blue will get a new one on Tuesdays and Kindy Red we get a new book on Wednesdays.
- Please make sure the books are brought back each MONDAY they come to Kindy ready to be swapped over after a fortnightly cycle. If you bring it back earlier that's ok we will keep it until swap over day e.g.
- In your child's comprehension pack they will receive: A story book and a set of questions (and answers to the questions) on a separate laminated page.
- If your child did not read the book, it still must be returned as our librarian changes all of the packs and does not have any spares if one is forgotten.
- If your child is sick, please endeavor to bring it to school with a sibling or another parent as it can affect the whole class if one book is not brought back.
Obviously the stories are too difficult for your child to read so please make this a special time that you can enjoy together. You may decide not to ask any questions until the second reading of your book. It's always nice to enjoy the story first. Some books are just picture books and do not have any words.
Below is an example of what the packs will look like and what they will have in them.
