DS1 started in reception last week.
We've had a reading book home nearly every night since. I'm fairly sure he can't read - can't reliably identify letters yet, but the repeatability of the books would make you believe by the end he was reading - so by page 8 of "where is chip?" he will say "where is chip" as his my finger follows the words.
Other than talk about the book, pick out letters, what can we do? And how do we / teachers know when they are reading rather than guessing or remembering?
Anything we can do to help him? Have had a note back saying they use "action words" but nothing more, so still working off the 18 letters from jolly phonics we had from Nursery in a different school. Questions in reading dairy get ticked, but no answers...
