Every class dedicates 15 minutes a day to reading for pleasure from a carefully-crafted reading spine. This allows children to explore new worlds, builds imagination and develop a lifelong long for books! Each week, a different class will share their class read.

In Geography, we are learning about our local area and region. We looked at things that we can find in our local area and how these compare regionally, nationally and internationally.

Nursery recommend the story "The Gruffalo's Child" by Julia Donaldson. They loved reading about one of their favourite characters in a wintery woodland and have been brilliant at guessing the rhyming words as we read the story together πŸ­β„οΈ @WellesbourneSch @WellesBooks

The children loved this activity with @LanguageBoxSLT. They enjoyed sharing our book of the week. Then used lots of language as they described the resources and made links to their own experiences. We were amazed by their use of positional language. @WellesbourneSch @WellesBooks

We don’t just read and answer questions in our reading lessons in Year 5. We explore texts in lots of different ways. Here, the children are playing the roles of a newsreader and a West Indian person who has just arrived in Britain on the ship β€˜Empire Windrush’ #reading

we took the opportunity while we had our fluffy friends in class to spend some time sharing some books from our book corner. Reading aloud to teddies is a great way to practise our skills πŸ“šπŸ§Έ

Nursery recommend the book β€˜The Koala Who Could’. Some of us are getting ready to go to Reception after the summer, and the little Koala in this story has helped to give us the courage to go on our next adventure! @WellesBooks @WellesbourneSch
