Comberton's Reading Approach
Here are some key documents outlining how we teach Reading at Comberton Primary and useful tools which we use to support reading.
Comberton's Whole Class Reading Spines
These texts have been carefully selected to be shared with our children as part of their Reading lessons. We want all children to experience these by the time they leave Comberton. Pupils will study a selection of Fiction, Non-Fiction and Poetry throughout the year, with texts covering a range of themes from a variety of authors. Key Stage 1 will continue to work on texts closely matched to their developing phonics ability.
Early Years and KS1 Reading Rainbows
These are some of the texts that our children will share in their Story Times.

Below are some useful questions that you can ask your child whilst you are reading:
