tapestry And Reading

Tapestry is our online learning journal that we use to share children's learning with parents and carers. 

Each journal will contain a range of observations:

  • Snapshot Observation - short wow moments capturing new independent learning and may contain pupil voice
  • Focus Activities – These are group activities that will include a short context of the activity
  • Whole Class Experiences – These will give parents information about experiences such as Forest Schools, focus days, workshops, trips or class visitors
  • Parent Contributions – Parent partnership is very important to us. Parent contributions might include observations and photographs of learning and/or interests at home, comments on observations made by our practitioners, responses to home learning challenges etc
  • Home Learning Suggestions – Home learning challenges to support parents continuing learning at home

Expected Daily Reading 

Children should read every day!

We encourage lots of reading for pleasure too! Please read lots of books to your child. Bedtime is a perfect time to snuggle up and enjoy a book together.

Your child will bring home a book from our library every week to enjoy with you.

Decodable books

Once your child has learnt some phonics sounds and can blend to read, your child will have a physical practise decodable book and an e-book (the book they are reading in class). They should practise reading these books daily to develop their fluency and comprehension.
