Summer reading challenge for holidays.

Summer reading challenge for holidays.

(0)
This reading challenge could be undertaken by children of any age. I have been teaching in Key Stage 2 for 22 years. I give out this homework on the day before the holidays when I meet my new class for September. The children choose 10 different reading activities to achieve over the holidays, they can even make up their own. When they have achieved each task, they cut out the relevant scoop of ice cream and stick it on a cone. 2 scoops on each cone. They can decorate the ice creams with sprinkles, cherries or flakes. I have been using reading challenges in my class for the past four years, with great success. They give a real purpose for reading. We have a school reward and a treat - obviously ice cream or ice lollies work well. We also have a Winter and a Spring Reading Challenge for these longer holidays.

This reading challenge could be undertaken by children of any age. I have taught in Key Stage 2 for 22 years. The children choose 10 different reading activities to achieve over the holidays, they can even make up their own. When they have achieved each task, they cut out the relevant snowman and stick him on the wintry scene. When they return to school after the holiday, they are rewarded for their hard work. I have been using reading challenges for the past 4 years in my class, with great success. They give a real purpose for reading. We have a school reward and a treat such as hot chocolate with marshmallows and squirty cream. It works well! We also have a Spring Challenge in the Easter Holidays and a Summer Challenge given to my next class to complete before coming into my class in September.

These sheets support WRM - Varied Fluency for Year 5 - Spring 1 week 1-3. There are two worksheets on long multiplication using standard written method (with answers). When the children have completed the questions, then they can cut out the character (shark) and stick it in their book or on a card to collect different characters. I have made this with a sea theme as my topic this term is Blue Planet. If you would like to have the same sheets with a different theme, please contact me on Facebook or Twitter - The Tiki Teacher.
