Snap shots from the week:

Your child has been given a reading record and they have chosen a book from the book corner to bring home to share with you. Please share this book with your child, reading the story and talking about what is happening. Once you have done this you can comment in their reading record. Please write the date, book title and a comment for example about how they have got on or if they have enjoyed the story. Reading to your children is very important and we encourage you to do it as much as you can.
