Buddy reading challenge!
This week I’ve not set any IXL or Education City homework but I do have a challenge for you instead! For your role as a buddy to Reception, why not record yourself reading a favourite short story, one that perhaps you enjoyed when you were in Reception, which can then be played for Reception at story time. Film this at home and then send the video to me at our Year 5 email address (year5@our-lady.blackpool.sch.uk) and I will pass them on to Mrs Holden. Reception are already looking forward to receiving your stories.
