Reading at Home

Bowman Academy

At Bowman Academy, we believe that reading is the key to unlocking learning across the curriculum. Regular reading at home plays an important role in helping your child to develop fluency, confidence, and a lifelong love of books.

Your child will bring home reading books (RWI Book Bag Books) which are precisely pitched at your child’s reading level, to share with you. It is important you listen to them read each day. Help your child to decode words at home, it is really important to pronounce the sounds correctly.

Your child also has unlimited access to school library books.

Please see table below which highlights some of the keys phrases school uses when teaching RWI.
