Reading
Reading at NBP
We want everyone to grow up loving reading and enjoying it. We expect everyone to practise reading at least 3 times each week at home. Teachers have incentives and treats for pupils who read a lot or improve their reading rapidly.
We build in lots of opportunities to read during the school day, including:
- Guided Reading lessons
- Reading in English lessons
- Reading in Maths lessons
- Reading in Science, Art, History, Geography, Music, RE, PSHE, Computing, PE...
- Outdoor reading at break and lunchtime
- Reading in the library
Teaching phonics, spelling and developing vocabulary are also threaded through the curriculum, which support reading and writing.
