English Update
English Update
Reading is such a crucial skill for children to acquire. As well as the mechanics of reading, fostering a love of reading is also crucial as it develops vocabulary and wider knowledge.
At Cheam Fields Primary Academy we are always trying to find new ways to raise the profile of reading within school and as such we have planned many exciting reading opportunities and events for this year.
Look out in the newsletter for all of our wonderful reading related news.
Battle of the Books
Battle of the Books
This term we will be relaunching our Battle of the Books reading competition at Cheam Fields. Each year group will have a list of books recommended for their age group.
In order to enter the battle, children need to read a book from the list and when they have done this, they need to complete a book review. When their teacher has seen their review, they will record this on their ‘Battle of the Book’ chart which is kept in the classroom.
Each term in our Excellent Eight Assembly, we will celebrate the classes and children who have read the most books so far. The children have copies of each book in their classroom for them to borrow.
Please encourage your child to return these promptly when they have finished reading them. Each book has a special ‘Battle of the Books’ sticker to help you distinguish them.
Every week in the newsletter we will share a book from one of the year groups, giving you a short synopsis. Keep an eye out for these to see if your child has already read it or whether it will be a book they will be keen to read!
Class Novels in KS2
Class Novels in KS2
The children in KS2 have begun to be introduced to their class novels. These will be used in their reading sessions and to provide a stimulus for some fantastic writing opportunities. They have been carefully selected to showcase great vocabulary and storytelling. Make sure to ask your children about the new books they have started to read!
