Reading Thursday

Morning Primary 1/2

Today we are going to do some work on our reading.

 

 

Warm Up:

• Read your Primary 1 and Primary 2 common words (I will put them at the end of this post incase you don’t have them at home). Time yourself and see how quickly you can read them!

• Click on the link and play one of our favourite games from class – Help a Hedgehog to Read.  How many words can you read before the time is up? I remember when we were working together in class we managed to read 18 words and SPH managed to read over 50 words on his own! 

Main Task:

• We are going to complete a book review.  A book review helps other people decide if they would like to read a book.  You tell other people how much you liked the book and why you liked it.

• Choose a book you have in your house or log in to your Epic Reading or Oxford Owl account

Can you answer these questions:

• Who is the author of your book? What is the job of the author?

• Who is the illustrator of your book? What is the illustrators job?

• Is your book fiction or non-fiction? Can you remember what fiction and non-fiction mean?

Common Words: 

• Primary 1
