Reading
Miss White's class perform 'Little Freak' (A narrative poem adapted from an award-winning short film by Edwin Schaap)
In Year 5 and 6, we have developing our reading fluency. We have unpicked the habits fluent readers have like reading with accuracy, using a conversational pace, paying attention to punctuation and using our voices to bring the text to life. We have then applied this to our reading of the poem 'Little Freak'. We hope you enjoy it!
How can I support my child to read fluently?
Watch this video to see how to echo read with your child.
Once children have mastered phonics and are able to sound out words and blend to read, they need to develop good reading fluency with increasingly challenging texts. Children, who are fluent readers, read accurately, with good pace and show a good awareness of how to phrase words and read with expression. These can be really tricky skills to master and need frequent practice.
Echo reading is a really fantastic way to support your child to develop these skills. Please watch the video below to see what this looks like in action. If you have any more questions about how to do this at home, please contact us via our Team 4 email address.
