Our Key Adults
Recommended books
RWI windows and mirrors text list At Light Years, we know that “reading is the gateway to wider learning” (OFSTED, 2023) and this is clear throughout our curriculum.
We work with Hampshire Library Services to select high-quality, engaging texts that reflect our children’s interests. Please find below a link to the Read, Write Inc, ‘Windows and Mirrors’ suggested book list that promote diversity and inclusion and allow children to “see themselves in stories”. As RWI notes, “stories help children become empathetic and reflective.”. Themes on the book list include family and friendship, exploring feelings, kindness, community, our planet, change and bereavement, moving home or country and the power of speaking up. Your child’s class teacher will also be able to provide a personalised list of suggested reads upon request. “One of the greatest gifts adults can give is to read to children” |
Our Online Learning Resources
To encourage a love for reading and improved fluency and accuracy, we ask that you please send your child in each day with their reading record. This will contain log ins for Oxford Reading Buddy, Prodigy Maths and Word Shark to support their learning at home.
