Free information and training for parents

Post by Debbie_Hepplewhite »

A headteacher was asking me about free information and training for parents. There is lots of information via the internet but the links and resources below make a good contribution:

Here you can find the PowerPoints I provide for schools to support their parents' information events - although they are programme specific, they can also be looked at more generically:

Here is John Walker's Sounds-Write free training for parents:

Here is Sue Lloyd's free site for parents (Sue is co-author of Jolly Phonics):

Here is a page of information, video footage of explanation and classroom practice for some of my resources - this can provide information for parents to understand the systematic synthetic phonics teaching principles:

Here are many free resources some of which parents might find helpful to use at home:
