Our Reading Challenge: 

Every time you read at home, either a book from home or from school, make a note for how long you read for and ask an adult to sign this in your planner.
For every 15 minutes you read you can fill in one honeycomb of your reading beehive on our class reading display.   Changing your reading books:
You can change your reading book every morning. Place the book you have finished in the green box before choosing your next book from the boxes on the window sill. 

If you are unable to change your book at school and need something to read use Oxford Owl. Click here

Reading in School

We have guided reading every morning. Over the five mornings we have five tasks, these include:

1. Reading VIPERS (a reading comprehension task, done with an adult, covering all the reading domains)

2. Vocabulary Builder (a dictionary task where we look for the meanings of words from our class text)

3. Independent Comprehension time ( a reading comprehension worksheet with a specific reading domain focus)

4. Group Reading of our class text (coral reading with Miss N followed by answering retrieval and inference questions)  

5. Independent reading time (working in our Busy Bee Reading Booths we read our own reading books, for this we earn two honey combs for our reading challenge) 

Our new task: instead of independent reading this week we are listening to our previous class text on audio book. We used our class budget to buy six headsets. Here we are enjoying listening to our story.
