| What are procedures for reading books? |
Children are responsible for changing their own reading books in school. Reading books can be changed in school on any day and children need to let their teacher know when they have changed their book so their reading record can be updated. Teachers will prompt and remind the whole class each morning to change their books. Children are encouraged to be independent when changing their reading books. There is no set day to change their books. |
