Today we explored a new text, answering a range of comprehension questions. Some of us even challenged ourselves further by pushing for green standard. A great reading lesson MI 🙂

Reading Champions!
Another week where we have been able to celebrate lots more Reading Champions in school! It was great to see so many children stood up in Achievers Assembly this week being celebrated for their awesome reading at home. It was lovely to see the beaming smiles on children’s faces and to listen to them talk about how proud they felt. Thank you again to those adults at home who are taking the time to listen to their child/ren read very night.
This week we also celebrated the Crews who collectively read the most at home last week. Crew Marsh won it for KS1 and Crew MI for KS2.
Well done to all of our Reading Champions and their amazing adults at home!

Reading Champions!
This week we had lots of children who were awarded for reading at home. It is great to see the increase in numbers and how much children are enjoying reading every night at home. BIG thank you to all of those grown ups at home who are spending the time listening to their child/ren read, the benefits are HUGE! After having a peek at some reading records this week it is also great to see the lovely comments from grown ups!
We also celebrated the Crews who have been collectively reading the most at home, Crew Godley won it for Week 2 and Week 3 in KS1 and Crew Boswell for Week 2 and Crew Shields for Week 3 in KS2.
Well done to all of our amazing readers and parents! I wonder if we might have even more Reading Champions later this week?!

Our favourite time of the week in Y1, is our reading cafe when parents come in and read with us 🥰
Super Story Tellers!
In Crew Welburn, we have been looking at the story of Jack and the Beanstalk! The children have loved using the props to re-tell the story, and have used these alongside the book to draw a story map today. The children used their maps to re-tell the story using some of our new words. I was very impressed with the detail that they could remember! Below you can see some examples of work from Aubree, Penelope and Jasper who were all very proud of their achievements…🌟
Reading Champions
Last Friday, we started the first of many reading celebrations to come! Lots of children across school were awarded for reading at home. Teachers have been keeping a log of how many children have been reading each week and we really wanted to praise those children (and grown ups!) who have really made the effort to read at home every night! We also celebrated the Crew who have been reading the most at home and last week’s winners (for Week 1) was Crew MI! Well done to all of the fabulous readers! Keep up the great work! I wonder who our Reading Champions will be next week? Could it be you?!
Story Telling in Crew Welburn
We’ve been looking at the story Jack and the Beanstalk in Crew Welburn today. We used our story language like ‘once upon a time’, ‘fee, fi, fo, fum’ and ‘they lived happily every after’ to retell the story using our props. We loved looking at the magic beans, growing the beanstalk and acting out the story using the characters!
Crew Godley super readers!
This week we’ve had a great week with so many children reading at home to their grown ups and siblings. The children have been so proud in academic crew sharing their reading scores with their peers. Today, those children who read three or four times this week received a ’get smart’ postcard because it shows they are most certainly getting smart when they can apply our phonics to read more fluently. Thomas, our little reading super star read five times, as he does every week! We thought this deserved a celebratory big bar of chocolate!
Crew Godley Reading Cafe
We have loved having parents in again for our reading cafe this week, thank you again for spending the time to come and read with your children! 🥰 We look forward to seeing more parents next Thursday at 2.45 😊
