Book bags

This week the children will be coming home with a school book bag, which will have a book in to share with you at home. They can change the books as often as they want.
Happy story telling.

Wordless picture books

Today your child will come home with a lilac book to share with you at home. These books are the beginning of their reading journey. They have no words but use pictures to encourage discussion and storytelling. In the back of their reading record is a lilac sheet for you to record their reading. We will change these books once a week.

Have a look at the information pages given in your child’s reading record to give you tips on getting the most out of these books.

Audiobooks

Thank you to those of you who have let us know if you have access to a CD player at home.

Today, we have sent the children who have a CD player home with an audio book. Please have a look inside your reading folder.

I’ve managed to source a small CD player to come home on a rotation for those who don’t have access to one. If you know of any that are going spare, they would be put to good use. We are also looking for headphones to use in class.

Thank you for your continued support,
Happy listening!
