Reading

Today it's your final read of your non-fiction books; 'A Pet Tortoise' or 'Save the Whale.' Your challenge is to read the book fluently and to make it interesting to the listener. You can do this by adding expression to your voice as you read. As you have read the book three times you should have a very good understanding of what you have read. Move onto the back of the book then and see if you can answer the questions. Good luck. You've got this!

Today's sounds are -set 2 -oo - poo at the zoo

                               -set 3 - ure

                              The reading longer focus is oy/oi

 Try to do the speedy sounds and spellings. Year 1's choose between set 2 and 3.
