Reading

We aim to foster a love of reading in the children as they learn to read - storytime is an important part of our day! Our English lessons also use high quality children's literature as a stimulus for writing. Reading is the single most important thing for your child's education. Please aim to read with your child EVERY day and record this in their Reading Journal - this includes sharing books.

In Year 1, most children will take home three books a week. These books are changed weekly but on different days so please ensure that their reading books are always in their book bags.

There are also lots of ways to access texts online. YouTube has lots of new books for your child to enjoy! Amazon also has free children's ebooks on their website - as does Oxford Owl.
