We are readers...
'Our reading corners are always cosy, and comfortable and there's always lots of books to choose from!' Class 2 child.
'Story time is the most important time of the day - we always read our class book before we go home, and I can't wait to read the next chapter each day!' Class 4 child.
'We get to read our own books all the time to the adults in school, the Alien Adventures ones are really exciting!' Class 3 child.
'We've just got lots of new books for our reading corner, a few children in class 6 have all read The Hobbit now. We sometimes talk about the books at lunchtime'. Class 6 child.
'I always look forward to knowing what our new class book is going to be next half term!' Class 5 child.
Reading is at the heart of all we do at Littletown School. Developing pleasure and a love for reading across classrooms is a golden thread running through our school curriculum and a tool to promoting wellbeing. We develop pupils’ oracy and wider understanding of language, have a systematic approach to phonics and early reading that integrates both decoding and comprehension, develop fluency in reading to support understanding, and use high-quality, thought-provoking texts to expose pupils to an ambitious English curriculum, with a key focus on vocabulary expansion. Reading, writing and oracy are the springboards to life-improving opportunities.
