This week I have decided to focus upon the reading that we do here at XP and the great work that my Crew are doing.
We have taken our AR reading tests this week and there have been both up’s and downs.
Some of our crew have raised there reading age! . While there is also some who have received a reduced age.
We discussed reasons for this , and they responded with honestly and integrity. Some simply do not enjoy reading and have mentioned that they do not read at all apart from in school.
Some may not have book at all. There are many opportunities to get books.
Where to get books…
- Students have access to an online library eReader
- If your child prefers physical books, take a look at this website which has a list of places you can buy books cheaply without having to buy through Amazon
- Doncaster Libraries are currently offering a click and collect service
Reading is so important and I hope that by working together we can support our crew to develop a lifelong love of reading.
On a second notes are some appreciations for my crew.
Well done to Belle , Ed and Lucas for consistently being recognised as hardworking students during this difficult time. You are a credit to the crew.
