READING

We are all very excited about the new way of teaching reading we will be trialling in the junior school starting this week. Some children will be working with Mrs Heaps in room 3 during reading time.

It is VERY important that all children remember to bring their reading book back to school every day as they will be required to read it again during our reading time. They also need to remember to bring their home reader (yellow book) every day as well. This helps them record what they are reading and aim towards gaining the certificates for a certain amount nights of reading.

Remember the best way to learn to read is getting plenty of reading mileage! This is reading lots of familiar books with lots of different people. We need to become really confident when reading, and by reading books we've already read, this helps us to do so.
