Additional Support
How can I help my child's reading?
Can you recommend any books for my child in Year 2?
Now old enough to sit and listen to longer stories, many 6 and 7-year-olds start to enjoy chapter books at this age. Picture books remain important at this age too, both for independent reading and for shared story times with adults, where the words and pictures can be discussed and enjoyed together. Children at this age are often able to handle an increasing complexity of themes, including learning to empathise where characters experience a range of emotions and new experiences. Funny books are hugely popular with this age group, as are visually appealing and highly illustrated non-fiction texts covering topics of interest.
