encouraged the children to talk in depth about characters, themes, and plot and make
links with their own lives and experiences. Each child was given their own copy of a Real
Reads classic, and the class would collectively agree to read a set number of pages before
the next gathering and come ready to share their thoughts and feelings. The engagement
of the children was beyond our wildest expectations and even the most reluctant readers
were reading and sharing their ideas; with many reading in excess of the agreed pages.
This success led us to invest in further sets of Real Reads which we use as whole class
guided reading texts across all twelve of our Key Stage Two classes. The quality of the
texts and the richness of the vocabulary are second to none.”
