Across school, we have adopted a whole class reading model (Reading with RIC) which replaces the previous carousel method. This pack allows accurate and rigorous teacher assessment as it addresses a different reading skill each day. Pairing Non-Fiction with Fiction for better understanding. I was using the narrative 'The Lion and the Unicorn' by Shirley Hughes in my English sessions and this non-fiction sheet provided the essential background knowledge to my WW2 topic allowing discussion of the key vocabulary required. I have also posted similar sheets on 'WW2 Overview' and 'Evacuees' I would love to receive your feedback. Alison

As a school we have adopted the whole class teaching of reading advocated by Jo Payne (mrspteach.com) and I have designed a record sheet for each year group which can be stuck on the inside cover of the children's reading journals. We use these sheets to monitor individual progress and we record the child's reading age termly using the PiRA reading assessments. The baseline boxes on the left of the sheet are colour coded (red/yellow/green) at the beginning of the academic year to indicate what skills the child is more/less confident with.
