  1. St Barnabas Parents’ Reading Information Session November 2016

  2. Quiz Time! What is Charlie’s surname in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl?

  3. Aims of this session • To share our expectations for teaching reading at St. Barnabas. • To understand that a diet of good quality reading enables children to read for meaning at all times and this in turn makes them more confident writers. • To share resources, ideas and strategies to support children's reading at home.

  4. Our own experiences of learning how to read • What are your own experiences of learning to read at home and at school? • What reading scheme did your school use to help you learn to read?

  5. Do any of these ring a bell? • Roger Red Hat • Rainbow books • Janet and John • Read it yourself – Ladybird books • Biff Chip and Kip • SRA cards • Beano • Jackie • Shoot • Match • Dandy • Roy and the Rovers • Books with tapes – Elves and the Shoemaker (classical songs)

  6. Understanding Texts • Can you read this? baa baa black sheep Have you any wool yes sir yes sir Three bags full • How did you decode the text?

  7. Decoding the unfamiliar symbols • Do the same with your child. • Make links to other familiar symbols, look for a pattern, look at any illustrations or pictures or talk about the words.

  8. St Barnabas’s reading curriculum includes: • Guided reading • Phonics • Regular independent reading: • individual • group and paired • Home/school reading • Hearing books read aloud on a regular basis • Selecting their own choice of texts - library • E-books • Magazines and comics

  9. Quiz Time! What was the name of the dog in Peter Pan?

  10. Please watch this video – it is quite hard hitting • 10 minutes a day

  11. Sixth grade equates to 12 year olds

  12. How can parents and school work together? • Keep it fun! • Reading should be a choice not a chore • Reading doesn’t stop when you put the book down • 1:1 reading at home - questioning not just listening • Model good habits • Checking reading diaries • Show a love of reading – giving ‘special’ time to reading • Books as a treat • If you have concerns speak to your child’s teacher

  13. Home School Reading Records A huge thank you for hearing your children read. It is really important to comment in your child’s reading record as a way of communicating between home and school about some of the following: • Whether they enjoyed or disliked reading that time. • What you discussed during the session. • What they found easy or tricky. e.g. Charlie loved reading this book with me. We talked about how the princess felt when she was lost. Tricky words: palace, eventually. Page 28 next.

  14. Using film and television • Reading skills don’t always have to be developed from a book. • Let’s look at inference – a conclusion based on the basis of evidence and reasoning

  15. Reading Questions There are some bookmarks with questions to help guide them through the book.

  16. As parents, you are your child's most influential teacher with an important part to play in helping your child to learn to read and then to carry on that love of reading for life! Research Children who read for pleasure are likely to do significantly better at school than their peers, according to new research from the Institute of Education (IOE).
