Reading
We expect Year 5 children to change their own reading books as often as possible, bringing their reading records in to school frequently to be checked by their class teacher.
We encourage you to read as much as you can - at least 20 minutes every day. Ms Harman is an avid reader so please let her know of any recommendations you might have.

You can also visit The Book Trust and search for your own reading book based on your interests. Enjoy!
