Reading

Reading is considered an integral part of daily life at St Paul's. During their time at St Paul's children not only learn to read but develop a love of reading. In Reception and Key Stage 1 children are reading books linked to our 'Rocket Phonics' programme. This means that the books that they are reading tie into the sounds that they are learning in class. 

We teach reading through whole class sessions enabling all children to access and be exposed to texts that they may not otherwise come accross.

All classrooms have a book corner from which the children can borrow books to take home or read at quieter times of the day.
