My P2 child still sounds out every letter when reading. Should I be worried?

At Primary 2, this is common. Reading fluency develops at different rates. Daily reading practice — without pressure — is the most effective support. Consult the Tamil teacher if you feel your child is significantly behind peers.

How much writing should my P2 child be doing at home?

Beyond school homework, a few sentences in a Tamil diary or simple picture description once or twice a week is sufficient and valuable. Quality of practice matters more than quantity.
