Reading continues to rule in Year 7!

Following on from a very successful reading-themed tutor time last half term, Year 7 have again spent some time enjoying a host of activities designed to get them engaged in reading. Different tutor groups have taken part in different activities, all centred around encouraging pupils to be more active readers and to read a wider variety of genres.

7CR completed book reviews on their current books, explaining the plot, key characters and what they particularly liked about the book. This was particularly helpful to me to gain ideas for my own two children!
7LH had previously spent some time writing blurbs to selected pictures that Mrs Holmes had chosen. Pupils then had to read out their blurb and other pupils had the challenge of guessing which picture matched the blurb.
