Reading

Remember to read every day and it's great to share reading with other family members.

Think about different types of reading material, for example; books, magazines, food packets, instructions for games, websites, to name a few.

Below are some links to online books to read and listen to.

If you are a member of the Cambridgeshire library service you can borrow ebooks, magazines and audiobooks online. Go to the website link below to log in and get more information. Don't worry if you are not a member you can also join by following the link.

The Cambridgeshire Library Service are again running a Summer Reading Challenge, but digitally this year. Find information in the PDF below.

Message from Mrs Hunt:

I'm just leaving a message to let you know that from this week I am now teaching an FS2 'bubble' class. But, be rest assured, I am still very much one of the Year 2 teachers and wish it could be you that I am teaching in school! I will continue to plan your English learning and some of the foundation subjects. I apologise for putting up Wednesday's learning late, I will get into a new routine! During the day Mrs Stewart and Mrs Richardson will be checking and responding to Emerald class emails and then I will be able to look back at them after school to find out what you have been up to and to see all your great learning.
