Reading
It is essential that children continue to read every day at home. To support this, we have assigned children e-books for their book band here https://my.risingstars-uk.com/
You should have received your log in details to access these books, please email me on mgoodwin@birklandsschool.co.uk if you are experiencing any issues.
I have also included lots of free websites and resources for reading on the links page and at the bottom of this page.
"Reading gives us a place to go when we have to stay where we are."
