Student logins have been shared in Welcome Letters.
If your child forgets their logins for any of the above please refer to Welcome Letters sent via email at the beginning of year. Individual logins can be found there.
It is also recommended to have students create a login sheet for themselves to use as a reference.
Reading at home
Please be sure that students are reading for at least 20 minutes nightly. It would be very helpful for you to check their Reading Record books regularly.
Here are some sites to help guide choosing books:
https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/our-recommendations/
https://www.lovereading4kids.co.uk/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBuT2wdYtpM "Why we should all be reading aloud to children" - a highly recommended TED talk by Rebecca Bellingham.
https://www.commonsensemedia.org/ - a highly useful website for checking the age-appropriateness of books, films, and video games.
You can access and search the TBS library catalogue here.
