READING

We would like all children to read at least 3 times a week. Please record this reading in your reading record.

We will collect reading records in on a Friday and update DOJO with your points. Please remember to bring your reading record in each Friday.

Every time you read, it will go towards our Fordbridge Reading Road. If you reach the end, you can visit the reading vending machine to choose a brand new book to keep.

Please feel free to read personal books from home and record it in your reading record. EVERY READ COUNTS!

Every child has been given a log in for Oxford Reading Buddy
