Children will have guided reading sessions with an adult every week. On their guided reading day, they will bring home the book we have read together and one or two other phonics books to read to you. Children benefit enormously from re-reading books several times to build up speed and fluency so these books will only be changed once a week. Children can also choose books from the book corner whenever they wish to do so. Each child has a reading record book for parents/carers to note when they have read with their child and any comments about their child’s reading. Please ensure that this remains in your child’s bookbag, as your comments can be very helpful to adults reading with your child at school. It will be checked each week and stamped by an adult.
This half term we will be revising the children’s understanding of the alphabet, letter/sound recognition and ‘red’ words through daily phonics sessions. The children will enjoy a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts linked to our topic of Dinosaurs and will practise reading and writing simple sentences and looking at the use of capital letters and full stops. Daily handwriting sessions will support the children to write with greater fluency of movement.

English
Children will have guided reading sessions with an adult every week. On their guided reading day, they will bring home the book we have read together and one or two other phonics books to read to you. Children benefit enormously from re-reading books several times to build up speed and fluency so these books will only be changed once a week. Children can also choose books from the book corner whenever they wish to do so. Each child has a reading record book for parents/carers to note when they have read with their child and any comments about their child’s reading. Please ensure that this remains in your child’s bookbag, as your comments can be very helpful to adults reading with your child at school. It will be checked each week and stamped by an adult.
This half term we will be revising the children’s understanding of the alphabet, letter/sound recognition and ‘red’ words through daily phonics sessions. The children will enjoy a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts linked to our topic of Dinosaurs and will practise reading and writing simple sentences and looking at the use of capital letters and full stops. Daily handwriting sessions will support the children to write with greater fluency of movement.
