Reading in Year 5

 

As we approach the last half of the Summer term, the Year 5 team wanted to remind parents of the Broadford reading scheme: 105 books to read before you leave Broadford Primary.

At Broadford, we aim to encourage a love of reading. By providing our pupils with quality texts and introducing them to strong characters, we can broaden their perspectives on the rowed around them as they are taken to far off lands from the comfort of their chair!

The impact of reading with your child knows NO bounds! From better conversations to better written work, the impact of reading just for 15 minutes a day with your child can unlock so much.

As the children progress through the reading scheme they will have the opportunity to collect three certificates - bronze, silver and gold for every five books they read.

Below are the 15 books the children should read in Year 5:

Children are issues with a reading tacker as pictured below:

This may have been kept at school and in this case your child needs to let their teacher know which books they have read. If it has been misplaced your child's teacher will replace it.

Once your child has let their teacher know which books have been read, it will be followed with a quick chat about the book with their teacher to demonstrate their knowledge of what they have read.

Happy reading!
