Reading Curriculum: Learning to Appreciate Stories
Our Reading Curriculum starts with our Class Novels. The opportunity for our children to hear, share and enjoy quality stories.
Our Class Reading Novels are taken from Pie Corbett’s Reading Spine. However, they will be regularly reviewed to ensure they remain relevant and challenging and to include new books that capture the imagination of our children.
