My daughter has justed started Year 1. She is allowed to choose a new book whenever she is ready and we read every day after school.
My slight issue is that because she is allowed to choose her own, she is bringing home books she has already read in her reception class and some books that are 2 levels below the level she ended up on at the end of her reception year - because she likes the pictures on the front (aaah bless her).
She reads the books through quickly/with understanding etc. I understand that any reading she does is good practise and good for her confidence but I wish she was being a little more challenged!
Is there a polite way to ask the teachers to guide her to something at least at her level or to get something a little more challenging? Or should I just use our own books for her at home reading?
