The children will bring their reading books home daily. Please support them at home with their reading and record the pages they have read. Reading books will be changed on Tuesday and Friday. Please ensure your child has their reading book in school on these days. The children will read in class in guided group sessions and supported to read 1:1 by teaching assistants and the class teacher.
Spellings will be tested daily through the Read, Write, Inc phonics scheme. Phonic knowledge will be assessed half termly and children will be assigned a teaching group.
