Reading Lessons
Children in Reception and KS1, have guided reading lessons in small groups that are closely matched to their reading ability. They have a mixture of adult-led and independent, skills focused lessons that teach decoding and comprehension.
In KS2, children have whole class reading lessons. Each day, the children follow (using their own individual books) as the teacher reads. We also use echo reading and choral reading to model how to read with expression. These lessons teach skills through the text. Children will also be given comprehensions questions to answer, based on what they have read that week.
Reading skills:
Each class also has a class book, that we read ‘for pleasure’ each day.
