This week, it has been a pleasure to see even more pupils at Fielding being awarded Bronze, Silver, Gold and even Platinum Reading Awards. These are achieved for pupils having read  5, 10, 15 or 25 books from their year group recommended reading lists and completing response activities (from the options provided in their reading record).

This week, pupils in Years 3-6 spent a Whole Class Reading lesson working on writing a response activity as a class for a recommended reading book that they've read during Story Time, English or Whole Class Reading. This was a perfect opportunity for those who hadn't started already to begin their journey towards achieving reading awards. Response activities can be submitted to class teachers on Teams under their class notebook, in the recommended reading section (please see picture below) or handed in to their class teachers in person. We look forward to celebrating more reading achievements next week! You can view your child's recommended reading list when you sign their reading record or click on this link and scroll to the bottom of the page. English | Fielding Primary School.

In Summer term, we are spending a further £15000 on updating the book stock in the KS1 and KS2 libraries and our newly updated recommended reading lists will be published in line with our purchase of copies of new books for class book corners. Please do continue to take the time to read with and/or listen to your child read for 20 minutes and sign their reading record daily. This is invaluable as it instils a love of reading amongst our pupils and essential to teachers as they continue to monitor the books that their pupils are reading at home and recommend new books based on their interests.
