Emma Cuthbert, Interim PT at Bainsford Primary School is delighted to share the wonderful work her P2\/1 class has been carrying out in relation to higher order reading skills.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The class\u00a0have already studied Lost and Found<\/em> by Oliver Jeffers and completed a thinker reader booklet. The start of this session has been spent on Book Detective skills and roles and comprehension related to their\u00a0reading books.<\/p>\n

They have recently studied Pink<\/em> – again by Oliver Jeffers and you can see some evidence of their hard work here.<\/p>\n

Emma and her class are making an extremely valuable contribution to the Literacy Strategy and plans to go onto applying these skills to other texts. Sharon Wallace, Curriculum Support Officer is really impressed with the quality of reading here and has invited Emma to share this good practice at an authority CPD event.<\/p>\n

Can you spot the 6 comprehension strategies in operation here?<\/p>\n

1. Prior knowledge and understanding – what do you already know about penguins? What do you know about pink?<\/p>\n

2. Metalinguistics – can you spot the tricky words or phrases? Can you find the word ‘penguin’ in the text?<\/p>\n

3. Visualisers – can you draw of a picture of the story so far?<\/p>\n

4. Inference – reading between the lines questions<\/p>\n

5. Main ideas<\/p>\n

6. Summarising<\/p>\n

The children really enjoy the Thinking Reader approach and here are a few quotes to share:<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoyed \u2018finding the evidence\u2019 in the book\u201d Ella<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cCan we do these again for a different story? They are fun.\u201d Jack<\/em><\/p>\n
