Shared Reading

Shared reading is an activity for all the boys in the school to do at home with their parents. Each boy reads a couple of pages of a novel, factual book, magazine, newspaper or any other form of reading every day and record it in their shared reading/reading record booklet. This is then signed by parents/guardians.

Many students have commented that Shared reading encouraged them to read more and provided them with an opportunity to practise their reading skills at home with their family. Many teachers have commented that individual student’s reading and comprehension improved, with positive effects on their confidence and self-esteem.
