Reading Expectations

Year 6 Reading expectations

In Y6 we expect children to read at home 5 times a week with this being recorded and commented on in reading journals by adults. An adult at school will also read with your child regularly. Your children should be practicing reading out loud and in their heads and it would be great if you could sometimes ask them questions about what you have heard them read. They should develop a fluency in reading to be able to read 120 words per minute.

Children will be encouraged to have a reading for pleasure book form the class library as well as their banded book. Enjoy your reading time together.

Please follow the link for more information about reading and spelling in Year 6.
