Sut i gefnogi eich plentyn: Mae ymchwil yn dangos bod rôl rhieni sy’n ymwneud ag addysg eu plant yn allweddol er mwyn gwella’u cyrhaeddiadau a llwyddiannau, yn ogystal a’u ymddygiad a’u presenoldeb cyffredinol. Mae dysgu o ansawdd uchel yn y cartref yn cyfrannu mwy at ddatblygiad deallusol a chymdeithasol plentyn na swydd, addysg neu incwm rhiant. Gweler isod ar gyfer rhai awgrymiadau: mae’n bosibl eich bod yn gwneud rhai ohonynt eisoes. Arfer gyda’r newid mawr
Offer defnyddiol Yn ogystal â’r wisg ysgol a dillad ymarfer corff bydd angen ambell i beth arall fel:
Gwaith Cartref Bydd llyfr cyswllt gan eich plentyn i gofnodi tasgau gwaith cartref. Bydd hefyd yn le cyfle i gofnodi unrhyw negeseuon rhwng yr ysgol a’r cartref. Gofynnwn i chi lofnodi’r llyfr yn wythnosol er mwyn sichrau bod y cyfathrebu mor effeithiol â phosib. Bydd angen i’ch plentyn i weithio’n fwy annibynnol yn yr ysgol gyfun o gymharu â’r ysgol gynradd, ond bydd eich mewnbwn chi wrth i chi ddangos diddordeb yn dal i fod yn bwysig a bydd hyn yn cynorthwyo eich plentyn i lwyddo. Chwiliwch am gyfleoedd i drafod gwaith ysgol gyda’ch plentyn; mae plant yn hoffi rhannu’r hyn maent yn ei dysgu. Ceisiwch dod o hyd i themâu sydd o ddiddordeb i’r ddau ohonoch fel bod y sgwrs yn un naturiol. Gofynnwch os oes unrhywbeth gallwch wneud i hwyluso’r gwaith cartref. Trafodwch trefniant y gwaith. Os oes mwy nag un darn o waith i’w gwblhau erbyn dyddiad penodol, awgrymwch amseru’r gwaith dros gyfnod yn hytrach na’i gwblhau’r noson gynt. Mae’r isod yn rhoi syniad i chi o faint o amser dylech plentyn dreulio ar waith cartref: Bl. 7& 8 rhwng 45 a 90 munud y dydd Bl.9 rhwng 60 a 120 munud y dydd Bl.10 & 11 rhwng 90 & 150 munud y dydd Ffyrdd eraill o gefnogi eich plentyn Efallai na fyddwch yn darllen gyda’ch plentyn yn yr un ffordd ag yr oeddech yn yr ysgol Gynradd, ond fe allwch barhau i gefnogi arferion darllen da. Trafodwch y llyfrau rydych chi a’ch plentyn yn darllen. Gofynnwch pa lyfrau hoffai eich plentyn dderbyn fel anrhegion pen-blwydd a Nadolig. Ewch i’r llyfrgell gyda’ch plentyn; os oes angen, gofynnwch am gyngor y llyfrgellydd wrth ddewis awduron newydd, neu edrychwch ar y We. Mae dilyn materion cyfoes yn cynorthwyo gyda gwaith ysgol, felly anogwch eich plentyn i ddarllen papur newydd o leiaf unwaith neu ddwywaith yr wythnos. Dewch o hyd i erthyglau sy’n gysylltiedig gyda gwersi’r ysgol. Os ydy eich plentyn yn ymchwilio am bwnc penodol, awgrymwch iddo/iddi ddefnyddio archifiau papur newydd da neu Wefan y BBC. Os ydych yn cynllunio diwrnod i’r teulu, ewch i amgueddfa neu galeri sydd yn berthnasol i’r gwaith mae’ch plentyn yn gwneud yn y Gymraeg, Saesneg, Gwyddoniaeth, Celf, Daearyddiaeth neu Hanes – gall hyn fod yn ffordd hwyl o gyfoethogi ac ymhelaethu ar addysg eich plentyn.

How to support your child
Research shows that parental involvement in their children's learning is an important factor in improving children's academic attainment and achievements, as well as their overall behaviour and attendance. Good quality home learning contributes more to children's intellectual and social development than parental occupation, education or income. Please see below for some suggestions: you may be doing some or all of these already. Getting used to the big change
As well as the uniform and gym kit they will need a few extras such as:
Homework Your child will have a contact diary in order to make a note of the tasks set by teachers and where any messages between home and school may be recorded. We would ask you to sign the diary on a weekly basis to help ensure that this communication is as effective as possible. Your child will need to work more independently at secondary school than at primary school. But your interest and input will still be important and will help your child to do well. Look for opportunities to talk to your child about schoolwork; try to find topics you’re both interested in so it's a natural conversation. Ask your child if there's anything you can do to help with homework. Discuss the organisation of the work. If your child has several assignments due in on the same day, suggest they space the work out rather than leave it all until the night before. The following is a rough guide to how long your child should be spending on homework at secondary school: Years 7 and 8 45 to 90 minutes a day Year 9 60 to 120 minutes a day Years 10 and 11 90 to 150 minutes a day Other ways to support your child's learning You may not be reading with your child as you did at primary school but you can still support good reading habits. Talk to your child about the books you're both reading. Ask what books your child would like for birthday and Christmas presents. Go to the library together - if your child is stuck for a new author, ask the librarian for guidance or look online at book reviews. Keeping up-to-date with the news helps with schoolwork. Try to encourage your child to read a newspaper at least once or twice a week. Find news stories that connect to lesson topics. If your child is researching a subject, suggest the online archives of a good newspaper or the BBC website. If you’re planning a day out, visit a museum or gallery that will tie in with work your child is doing in subjects such as Art, English, History, Geography or Science - this can be a fun way to add depth and interest to your child's learning. Encourage the use of Welsh in the community and outside school by attending events organised by Menter Iaith Casnewydd.
