Reading with understanding
Blobdags like nutto What do the blobdags like? This proves that you do not need to
understand every sentence to be able to answer questions on a text
It is called ‘barking at print’ Our aim is for students to read with
understanding rather than just say words out loud
![Page 4: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
How reading is taught
Quiet periods of reading for enjoyment A class story One-to-one with the class teacher or teaching
assistant Bloom’s Taxonomy ‘Assessment Foci’ When the students can read the words fluently,
a deeper understanding is now possible
![Page 5: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

How can I help my child to develop these skills?
So how are these skills taught to a 7-11 year old?
![Page 7: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
“Fetch!”AF2
Just like a dog retrieving a stick, we need to go into the text to find, pick up and use information quickly and accurately.
![Page 8: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
“Hmm…..”AF3
For these questions we are text “detectives” searching for “clues” so that we can comment on characters, motives, events and ideas as well as making predictions.
![Page 9: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“Sort it!”AF4
Imagine a tidy tray with everything in its place to help us find just what we want. For these questions, we are explaining how texts are organised to guide a reader, using correct names such as “glossary, captions and sub-headings”.
![Page 10: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
“Words! Words!”
AF5
For these questions we need to think about and explain how writers use words, and how particular words and phrases make a text more powerful.
![Page 11: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
“What do we think?”
AF6
For these questions we are thinking about why the writer has written the text, what the writer thinks and what we as readers think about a text.
![Page 12: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
“To boldly go” questions
AF7
For these questions we are thinking about what the text tells us about other cultures, times and places. What makes this writer special and how does their writing compare with that of others? What do we know about this type of text.

Support at home Listen to your child read 3 to 5 times a week Students should read out loud for 10-15 minutes How can I help?
Encourage your child to read out loud for fluency, without interrupting!
Ask your child to retell the story Ask your child questions about the text – refer to
‘reading questions’ cards Encourage your child to read to a younger child, or
to imagine that they are doing so
![Page 23: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Other ways of encouraging
reading What if time is an issue? My child does not always want to read to me As an alternative, you could encourage your child
to make an audio recording of their reading progress. Reading out loud for fluency Retelling a story Choose one set of questions from the ‘reading
questions’ cards Recordings can be emailed to the teacher How to record instructions are on the English blog

Non-fiction Choose a topic to explore together, or as an
independent task Google search e.g. the water cycle Search Tools All results Reading Level Basic This removes a huge amount of non-relevant
data Forget Wikipedia!
![Page 54: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
First Language Reading
Can one of the reading sessions be in the home language i.e. not English?
Yes! Especially retelling a story as this encourages reading with understanding - e.g. a news article from their home country.
![Page 55: Help with Reading 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/568c57851a28ab4916cada03/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Final words Phonics first! Keep using sounds. ‘S’ is not eh-ss, nor is
it suh. It is sss
Reading empowers spelling and vice versa Chunking. Butt-er-fly
Use book-talk. Talk about the author, illustrator, cover, the beginning, the end, words, sentences, features on the page
Make connections “That’s a bit like when we…” Don’t worry if a book is read more than once Praise! Reading isn’t just about books e.g. Oxford Owl offers
250 tablet-friendly eBooks and activities. Go to the English blog!
