Homework
Reading in Emus Class, Years 4
Reading for pleasure is encouraged in many ways and in all year groups. For example, in addition to engaging with Accelerated Reader, every class has a weekly, timetabled "book club" when book ideas and recommendations are made or discussed and books/chapters shared; children across the school enjoy a daily "story time" with their class teacher and, once per half term, with other teachers in the school; all classes have the opportunity to visit our school library every week and we celebrate World Book Day with a whole week of activities...
There are many more ways we promote and encourage reading for pleasure in school, however, reading at home is equally important and crucial for every child.
But, what to read?
Below are links to recommended books and suggestions of similar authors if trying to encourage new books. If you would like any further help with suggestions for your child, please talk to myself or Mrs Pearson.
