The Reading Corner
Welcome to our weekly section of the newsletter all about reading. Every week, we will share a question (or two) with you about the book your child is reading in school. Please use these questions to help you find out a little more about what your child has been reading in school and continue to develop their love of reading.
Reception - Why does Stick Man keep on trying to get home? Which part do you think is the most dangerous for Stick Man? Why do you think that? Have you ever had to keep on trying at something that is hard? Why do you keep trying?
Year 1 – Can you remember what happened to Mouse's house? (the oak tree fell down) What other places did Olivia think might make a good house for a mouse? (a teapot, a cuckoo clock, a boot, a box of cheese, a fallen plant pot) Where did Mouse choose to live in the end? (with Olivia in the house with the little red door)
Year 2 - Did you like the poem, The Great Fire of London by George Szirtes? Why? Why not?
Year 3 - If you could add one book to your Christmas wish list, what would it be?
Year 4 - What was your favourite story that we have read this term and why.
