At Sabden Primary we want our children to become  enthusiastic and engaged readers, and to develop a life-long love of books. We introduce the children to a range of good quality fiction, non-fiction and poetry books through our whole-class, core-text approach to teaching reading, and during their weekly guided reading session.

​

In the early stages of reading, we teach children to decode words using phonic skills as their main approach, alongside which we teach sight vocabulary.  Once grasped, the focus for developing reading is understanding and comprehension.

​

Your child will read with their class teacher once a week during their guided reading session, then independently supported by teacher set activities during the rest of the week.
