Numeracy & Literacy Info For Parents

[Guest]

Hello Everyone,

 

I've just been asked by my head to produce 2 leaflets or booklets for parents. She wants one leaflet to provide parents with ideas and activities to help their children develop numeracy skills, with a particular emphasis on subtract (more/less) and the other to provide ideas on how to develop reading and writing skills. I have to say i'm totally fed up!!!!!!! I have spent my summer holidays completeing a Foundation Stage Evaluation 20 pages long & writing a new policy. Now that I'm back at school and having been given the 'more difficult' children because I am an experienced (words from the head). Alas, I would be very interested in looking at any examples that anyone might have to share. I only have 2 weeks to produced these leaflets and need to get my skates on. Many thanks emma

I sent for some leaflets from the Learning Together Series it aims to help parents to understand childrens development and play an active part in their learning. I own a Pre-school and have left the leaflets in the lobby for the parents to take - there are ideas for helping at home.

The leaflets are available free of charge or can be downloaded from www.early-education.org.uk

 

I sent for

Maths Everywhere,

Making their mark - childrens early writing,

Questions and Answers,

Babies - Learning from the first day,

Helping Children with their Behaviour and

Toddlers and very early Learning

Not sure if you've seen these but if you scroll down to Home/School links there are target setting booklets in maths for each term to give to parents. You could always just adapt slightly to suit your needs.

There is some really useful stuff on the basic skills agency website for early years and they produce leaflets for reading and numeracy plus a link for parents to help their child at home and ideas for rhyme activities etc....

I know you can order packs of leaflets to send out to parents from here
