Reading

It is important that you have your school reading book and reading record in school everyday so that we can listen to you read. When you have read all of your book and an adult has heard you then you will be able to swop it for a new one. Sometimes you might be asked to complete a review of your book. We like to add these to our reading display for other children to read as it might be a book that interests them as well.
