Children will be bringing home at least 2 reading books this week. These will be changed once a week.
Please return books to be changed on the days below. We will quarantine books before putting them back in the system.
1A (Miss Lowry) – FRIDAY
1,2B (Mrs Latham) – WEDNESDAY
2C (Mr Gathercole) – FRIDAY
Children will be bringing home a variety of books. The ‘practise phonics’ book (sticker on the front cover) is for children to work on their ‘sounding out’ of words.
A ‘children’s choice’ book or books will be chosen by the children and can be read together and is to encourage an enjoyment of reading. Look at the pictures, talk about the characters or information and ask questions.
Please comment on how your child copes with the books as it may take us a little time to adjust and match books to each child. Year 2s will gradually move away from phonics books and have more children’s choice books and then the freedom to be ‘free readers’ – reading whatever they choose.
Children will also choose a library book each Friday (all classes will visit the library on FRIDAY).
Help us help your child by reading anything and everything you can.
THANK YOU!
