At Moortown, we do lots to create a love of reading: read a class novel, enjoy regular library sessions, have a weekly ‘love of reading’ free read session, read a range of interesting texts, take part in the ‘Extreme Reading’ competitions, etc.
In Year 5, we also enjoy reading with our Reception friends on a Friday. Reception and Y5 both look forward to this session. Year 5 do a great job of patiently reading to the younger children, asking questions to check their understanding while YR do a great job of reminding Y5 about phonics (and showing them how to stop after ‘3, 2, 1 Stop!’).
Here are a few pics from our most recent session…
