Description
Summary:At Princess May Primary in Hackney most pupils have English as an additional language and many also have additional Special Educational needs. As a result some pupils are still struggling with their reading in Class 6. Learning Support Teacher Jo Goodwin groups children according to ability rather than age and uses extensively props, such as horses or dragons, for her SEN guided readers. For such children she advocates additional orientation to help the child navigate the story by prior discussion of the title, blurb and picture on the cover. She also encourages children to articulate what they already know about a topic and to predict what is likely to happen next in the book. For the guided reading session we are following she chooses a book about travelling between the two poles.
