Reading at home during Lockdown
To support Reading at home your child also has two reading books; one is a decodable book-band book at their reading level and the other one is a library book chosen by them to share with you. We highly recommend reading a book more than once; three times is ideal as you will find that the children develop greater fluency when reading and begin to recognise more words by sight.
If you have access to the internet then please go to:
where you can sign up for a free account from which you can access and read other interactive books that are at the same reading level as your child’s book colour band.
Also, Epic! a digital library is providing instant access to 35,000 of the best books, learning videos, quizzes & more to help keep your child reading while they are at home during school closures. You can access this online resource through:
