Reading Activities

In reading last week the students all decided that their groups would read the activities in their journals. We took this as a spontaneous learning opportunity to make the crafts described in the instructions.

Three groups of students made a range of cards and card chickens. It was interesting to see some children didn't return to the instructions to make their craft and therefore struggled until pointed back towards their journals.

This was a fantastic activity for the children, particularly as our whole class focus in reading at the moment is comprehension. What better way to show comprehension than to follow some instructions.

Next week the students have requested a 'play' week so we will be reading and performing plays. Come along to the assembly on Friday to watch one of them performed on stage.
