This course involves reading to and with a group of children. We focus on the key skills of questioning, clarifying, predicting, inferring, making connections and summarising. We will focus on a central text and read it until the end applying all the skills as we progress.
My aim is to make reading fun and enjoyable for the children so that they will engage and hopefully extend their love of reading.
The sessions are 45 minutes so the children remain engaged throughout the session. The course is booked on a 4 weekly basis and will roll over after the 4 weeks if you wish to continue.
Here are some examples of the books that I have read already
The Boy At the Back of the Class by Onjali Rauf
The Nowhere Emporium by Ross Mackenzie
Skellig by David Almond
Voyage of the Sparrow hawk by Natasha Farrant
