Hi ,was wondering if someone can tell me what mners mean by free reading.
Is it choosing any book from school to bring home instead of ort or other scheme,or is it reading silently to oneself chapter books etc or being able to read any book?
Thanks

When they come off the school reading scheme i.e. stop reading Biff & Chip etc.

My DD is a 'free reader' in Year 1. The teacher provides her with appropriate books from outside of the reading scheme to read at home and DD also chooses a book from the school library. Have to say, I won't miss old B&C!
