Reading Books and Library Books

Reading books will be changed as soon as books are finished. The children can change their books themselves in order to develop independence and freedom of choice. Please send your child's book into school everyday so an adult can listen to them read in school. Children are expected to read at home 3 x weekly and have their reading record signed by an adult.

Your child will bring home a library book on a Wednesday and they will need to return the book the following Tuesday.

Phonics Homework

Phonics homework books will be sent home each Friday. Books need to be returned to school the following Thursday. The newsletters to support this will be uploaded to Seesaw each week.
