Hello, I am a primary school teacher and often hear staff say that they wish that families did more reading, maths and talking with their children at home.
So, I thought I would try to find out more. If you have primary aged children, how much do you do with them at home? Are you led by what they are learning at school, or do you make up activities yourself? What resources do you use? Do you enjoy learning with your child at home? Do they enjoy learning with you? Do you find it difficult and why?
I have a 2.5 year old son and I do absolutely loads with him but having spoken to others I suspect I'm either a total geek or it's because it's my job!
I'm really interested in what families do at home with their children. It totally fascinates me.
Hope you don't mind sharing and it generates a good discussion. Xx
