HOME READING
Please help your child to achieve their full potential as readers by ensuring that they read at home every day. Evidence of reading at home must be recorded in their reading diary by an adult in order for their book to be changed in school.
REMEMBER as developing readers it is a good idea for children to read shorter books twice in order to develop both their decoding skills and comprehension.
