READING
As part of our reading journey in Year 6, your child will have a 'Guided Reading' lesson every day where we will focus on a different skill each day.
During the course of the week, Miss. Grundy and Mrs. Mizera will listen to children read on a 1:1 basis. Please ensure that your child brings their reading book and reading record to school each day.
Please continue to listen to your child read at home and sign their reading records as our 'Reading Raffle' will continue in Celebration Assembly 😊.
