Reading
We have purchased a brand new reading scheme from Pearson Bug Club. This new scheme will provide us with bang- up-to –date material for our work in reading comprehension and guided reading sessions. Alongside the scheme we have new independent readers where the children can bring home books to practise the skills they are taught in class and also our new ‘e-readers’. All children will have a book they can read on-line - very useful for IPADs and tablets. The access to the ‘e-reading’ materials will provide so much more opportunity for individual, group and class reading ensuring children have every chance at achieving their potential.

Reading Destinations
Our new motivational reading reward system is proving to be very popular and already teachers are pleased to see a significant increase in the number of children reading each night. Parental support is so important with reading and our reward system is built around parents reading with their children and recording it in their record books. The class work together to collect kilometres (eg. 10km awarded per read) to reach different destinations around the world. When they reach their destination, they receive new books for their class reading corner as a prize. Everyone’s a Winner!
Help your child become have a love of reading and become a better reader.
Read with your child every day and encourage them to read as much as possible.
Your child will earn ‘kilometres’ towards their ‘destination’.
Every class is rewarded when they reach their destination.
YOUR CHILD NEEDS YOU!
