We aim to inspire and celebrate a love of reading here at Meadow. Our reading provision is carefully structured so that we give learners the best possible start during the early years, and the confidence to grow into skilled and confident readers. Please see below  for more information. 

Phonics & Early Reading: Miss Fiona Close

Reading across the school: Mr David Hughes and Mr Joe Kelly

Reading Records

There is space in the reading record to record 5 reads per week, as well as a space for your child’s weekly spellings and a parent/teacher comment section for home/school communication.

Please encourage your child to read at least 5 times per week. It is important that you spend time listening to your child read and asking them questions about what they have read. Reading stories to your child provides them with a love of books, an understanding of language and a deeper understanding of the world around them. Please see the front of your child’s reading record for further information. 

There are helpful inference questions in your child’s reading records, which you can use to support them in the development of their reading.
