Well done to the following children who consistently read at home. In some cases they are reading every single night. It would be lovely to see some more reading records next week. 📖

This morning we have tried another game during reading called Rally Table. Children worked in partners to take it in turns to record information we’ve learned during our reading lessons.
Today we were thinking about the Big, Bad Wolf and what he looked like. We started off by making split pin wolves and thought about the different parts of the wolf. We then went on a hunt around the room and looked at pictures of real wolves to generate some vocabulary for our writing tomorrow.
This week in reading, Crew Thompson used text marking to help unpick the text. We started new pages this week so it was really important to get a good understanding of the text and what the key words meant. In our next book talk lesson, we will use our text marking to help create a class glossary of these key words. This will really help us in our demonstration lesson later on in the week.
There was some great reading out loud between partners in our reading session today. Children are becoming much more confident when reading with their partner 🙂
Crew MW took our weekly trip to the library last Wednesday. We enjoyed our milk and snack while we sat and read a story called ‘There’s a dragon in your book!’ by Tom Fletcher. We then voted between two stories to bring back to our classroom to read at story time the next day. We loved our trip to the library! 📚
Today we pretended to be the Big, Bad Wolf and crept quietly to Granny’s house. When we got there her bed was empty, we think she’d been scared by all the howling! Some brave wolf’s even tried out Granny’s bed!!
We played a game of hand up, stand up, pair up to help recap the information we have learned so far from our text. It’s always good to get ourselves up and moving but also to speak with partners who aren’t in our table.
During our last 2 lessons in reading, we have been familiarising ourselves with text marking. This is a skill we are teaching and guiding the children with as it is important children can text mark in a way that will support their understanding.
This is a skill we will continue to develop during the Autumn term with the aim that children will be more independent in the Spring term.
Thanks again for coming to read, the children love spending time reading their RWI books.
