Mill Park Primary School’s English programme for students in Prep to Year 3 places a strong emphasis on early literacy development through the use of engaging learning tools. The programme incorporates phonics, an evidence-based teaching method for reading and writing, as well as guided reading groups, shared reading, and interactive writing activities to support student learning.
Parents can further support their child’s learning at home by encouraging regular reading aloud, asking questions about the story, and practicing phonics through games and activities. Additionally, working closely with their child’s teacher can provide parents with guidance on the specific strategies being used in the classroom and how best to support their child’s learning at home.
