Reading

Here is a CHOICE-AS website where you can put the title of a book or author which you have enjoyed and it will then find other books which are similar which you might enjoy.

Give it a try and see if it helps you find great books!

Above is our whole class learning intention for reading. These will help us to learn how to comprehend text better and gain greater enjoyment from what we read.
 

Today we interviewed our school principal, Mr Grey, about 'reading'. Have a look at what he had to say :)

Mr Grey, here at Te Kowhai School we do a lot around learning how to be effective readers. Why do you think it is important for students to learn to not only read but to also enjoy reading?

In your words, how do you think children at TKS enjoy reading?

What is the average standard for AsTTle at TKS as a Year 6 and is this good for us?

How much time do you think the teachers at TKS should give the students for Silent sustained reading time?

Thanks Mr Grey
