Reading Champions: Home Learning
Hello children,
I hope you are all safe and well.
As you are coming towards the end of your class reader books, there is time to reflect back on what you have read.
Think about the following questions:
- What was the main message of the story?
- Why do you think the characters behaved in the way that they did?
- Did the characters change throughout the story? Why?
- What was the mood like during the story? Did it change?
- Were your predictions correct?
- Does the story remind you of any other stories that you know?
- How did the story make you feel?
- Which part of the story did you visualise?
Class reader challenge
Can you answer the following questions about your class reader.
- What did you learn?
- Who are the main characters in the story?
- Do you have something in common with one of the characters?
- Where is the story set?
- If you could change the ending, what would happen in your story?
- Would you recommend your class reader and why?
Home learning
Hello Reading Champions!
I hope you are all staying safe during this difficult time.
Enjoy sharing books with your grown-ups in this lovely sunshine we have got at the moment. Discuss your favourite part of the story.
You could even act it out!

Thank you to Riley and Evie's grown ups for collecting tokens from The Sun newspaper so we had a chance of winning lots of new books!
Our Reading Champions have had the pleasure of opening them.
We cannot wait to share them with each other, our families and grown ups.

Reading Champions Job Description
Reading Champions project
Our Reading Champions have chosen to research popular books for different age groups throughout school.
We have carried out some research and collated a bank of books.
Our Reading Champions have voted for their favourite.
Our next step is to ask each class to make a vote on which one they would like for their classroom. Then we are going to go to Waterstones and buy those books.
The children will also be learning how to work within a budget.
We are the Reading Champions. We help to check whether all children every class have Read Every School Day. We know how important this is to help us in all our learning. In our folder we keep a record of the % of children who have read. Sometimes we talk to children who might not have done their reading to see if we can support them in any way. We love reading and we try to encourage and inspire others to feel the same.
