Re: oxford reading tree books
i know...... it was my job to read with them and change their books. the children were supposed to make up a story to go with the pictures (like expected in reception) but the reading records were never filled in from home.. you could tell that the parents never even went in their bags cos there would me letter still in there from months ago..... there is too much that the school has to pay for and not enough money to pay for it!

Re: oxford reading tree books
i agree.. my lad could read before he started school..he is 6 and he reads the juniors reading books and reads real books (eg gruffalo at the mo) to me at home.. the other problem with schools is that the lower ability children get more help and attention than the high ability children, these children are pretty much expected to fend for them selves.....

Re: oxford reading tree books
I couldn't agree more, Neil and Emamum.
I was informed by school that my son had a reading age of an 8 year old when he was in reception class. He's 6 now and is working his way through the 4th Harry Potter book. I have always been an avid reader and very good in English lessons at school. He takes after me and it just seems to come naturally to him. It doesn't come naturally to everyone. Some children will be stronger at something else. All children have a talent. However, you can make such a difference by reading to them as babies and making time to enjoy books together as they get older. This helps no end. I just can't understand parents who don't read their children's school books with them. Why would you not want your child to read?

Re: oxford reading tree books
that means you chose a good school.. i worked at schools in pendle...ive seen children that finish their work before the others given pictures to colour in and sent to play with toys while they are waiting for the others to finish.. it depends what the average ability in the class is...

Re: oxford reading tree books
when there is only 5 children of "normal" or above ability the teachers and teaching assistants are kept busy with the others. there was three of us in that class. 2 ta's and a teacher and we all had a group of 6 children who needed our help..

Re: oxford reading tree books
the teaching staff do their best! too many children and not enough help.. at least 5 children in that class should have had special support assistants but again the school didnt have the funding
