These are simple activities that will support your child's learning no matter what. By routinely repeating these over and over again these key learning focuses will help embed the vital skills that will seriously assist your child's academic progress.
Read and sing through the Māori alphabet He Waiata Arapū until your child has instant recognition of all letters.
Read and sing through the Māori consonant-vowel blend chart Ngā Kūoro. Your child needs this skill to sound out words when reading and writing.
