Reading Homework

Every night your child should bring home 2 books to read.

GUIDED READING
Your child will have guided reading with the teacher at least twice a week. Please read these books for the next two nights to increase familiarity and confidence in their reading.

CHOOSING BOOKS
Every morning, before school starts children can choose one or two books from their group box. These can be swapped as needed. They should all be at a slightly easier level so your child can read independently. This will increase their reading mileage, fluency and confidence. 

POEM
Each Friday we will do a poem as a whole class. These are glued into poem books and can be taken home over the weekend.

LIBRARY
Our library day is Friday and children are expected to borrow a new book each week. Please make sure they are returned to the library before school starts. 

Please sign their homework notebook each time they do reading at home. 


Each child has taken home a bookmark with some strategies to help them when they get stuck with their reading. These can live in their book bag. Encourage your child to use these strategies to help them become good readers. 

Spelling homework will begin in the next couple of weeks.
