At school we spend a lot of time practising our reading. Reading can be a tricky thing to do. It nice to read with an adult who can help you. Below are different reading activities. Read the text with your adult and talk about what you can see. Try very hard to answer the questions.

Please feel free to email Mrs Proudley and share how you found this activity. You could take a picture of your work or ask a parent / carer to write about how you got on. We love to hear how you are progressing with your English tasks.
