Description
Our new Tailored Learning courses are matched to one of seven ‘purposes' which have been designed by the Department for Education to recognise the wider benefits of learning. This course will help build parenting skills and give you the confidence to support your children's learning. Together with your child, you will listen to stories with a nature theme. You will make a grass head character to take home and find out about how plants grow. You will be able to find out about the Story Garden Summer Reading Challenge in Derbyshire libraries. Children must be accompanied by an adult. There is a maximum of 3 child places per adult.
This course is aimed at parents and carers with children aged 4 to 11.
This is a classroom-based course. There will be shared story readings, a mix of tutor-led activities, demonstrations, practical tasks and an optional quiz. Your tutor will give you support and feedback, so you know what to do to improve.
You do not need to bring anything all materials are provided. Please wear clothes that you do not mind getting messy.
This course is free and there are no other costs.
