MyBookBlog
To increase the children's comprehension and encourage their love of reading all of the children from years 2-4 have their own MyBookBlog page. Here, they can blog, collect facts, take comprehension quizzes and learn new vocabulary linked to books they choose to read themselves. Take a look at the books on offer in the school library, encourage your child/children to talk about and blog on the books they have read and tease out all that vocabulary when talking to them. Year 1 also have a class account, preparing them for their individual accounts once they reach Year 2.

Teach Your Monster to Read
In Reception and Year 1, we are also teaching our monsters to read at school and at home. Each child has their own login details and can earn certificates and letters from their monsters. If you need reminding of your child's login details, please speak to your child's teacher.

Library and Library Club
Our library is open every Tuesday after school from 3:30-4pm for you and your child/children to come and change their library book with Miss Murray. Children are allowed to take one book home at a time. Once they have returned it, they may choose another. Children at Totternhoe also have the opportunity to change their book during the school day.
In library club this term we have been having lots of fun! We don’t just read books - we read everything! We might be playing a game (reading rules and instructions), cracking a code, solving a word puzzle, creating our own poem or following clues on a treasure hunt! As well as borrowing books and sharing our opinions of them, we do a range of activities depending on the time of year, usually incorporating various festivals, celebrations and remembrances.There’s always thinking, talking, sharing, reading and writing going on in library club.
For more information or to borrow a book please speak to our fantastic head librarian Mason.
