Crew Ramsay loved going under the tables and cosying down in the pillows to enjoy some reading with Year 5. As we get more and more familiar, we are really beginning to bond with our buddies and grow as little people. Crew goes beyond the year groups at Carcroft as we are learning in Year Two!
Crew White are enjoying our new class library. There are lots of books thanks to our new ‘book swap’ scheme. We bring books in that we know will interest other classmates and share them on the book shelf. We have a mixture of non-fiction, fiction and First News. Football magazines are very popular right now!
This supports our target of reading more at home. If you want to find out more about the class library, come to Year 6.
The more you read, the more you know, the more you know, the more places you’ll go.
Crew Ramsay headed down to crew Barber to narrate our very own character-driven narratives to a real audience! We took so much pride in our work and loved performing as storytellers. Here we are in action…
Crew Ramsay and Crew Mcloughlin have been buddying up for weeks now to share stories and bond over books! We absolutely love our quality time with our reading buddies. Here we are sharing stories.
A huge shoutout to these children who are absolutely smashing reading plus at the minute.
All these children have achieved their Pre-A awards and Archie has been recognised as a word wizard too!
Keep it up!
Crew Rankin are loving their Reading Crew sessions on a Friday! We have been loving spending some time reading for enjoyment with the books we have been able to choose from our school library. Some of us have now finished our first books so have been to the library again today to change them for new ones!
Today in our reading lesson, we worked really hard as a crew and showed just how confident we have become at discussing the texts we read. We had in-depth discussions about our text and made some great links to our expedition topic. Mrs. Rankin was incredibly impressed with our ideas and opinions, and we were proud of how well we used our retrieval skills to answer questions. We are really growing as readers and enjoying our non-fiction texts along the way!
Our confident Year 6 readers teamed up with our curious Year 1s to enjoy stories side by side. The room was full of quiet voices, big smiles and lots of turning pages. The best part? We’re not just building better readers—we’re building social skills, confidence and a real love for books. Stay tuned for more stories from our Reading Buddies because when we read together, we really do put the fun into reading!
Last week our crew walked to the school library to enjoy reading and exploring different types of books. There was so many to choose from!
