If it's helpful, even though you're (probably) on holidays, I am resharing the very long blog I wrote about how we teach Whole Class Reading at our school. We have really fluent children who love reading and I've tried to break it down as much as possible. mrboothy6.wordpress.com/2025/01/03/who…

Hurrah!

As part of a local art project, each child was asked for the title of their favourite book. These are my Yr 2’s choices. What is evident here, is the power of class readers in exposing readers to new texts (and a real passion for AitJF @CRSains!)

World book week went by in a blur of trains and school visits. This year I tried to keep a note of small things that I enjoyed as the week went on. Thanks so much to everyone who welcomed me or dressed up as one of my characters - you had me smiling all week.

Every time you encourage a child to read a book, you will change their lives - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. But child by child, book by book, we can change the world. Children who read become adults who think - and will build a world that’s better for EVERYONE. #literacy

We couldn’t wait until after half term - or even until Monday. Today we started our new class reader. Sharing this masterpiece has to be one of the best parts about teaching Year 2. What a joy! @CRSains
