SSR: SILENT SUSTAINED READING on WEDNESDAY'S

One of the small changes I made to the timetable last week, was changing SSR to a Wednesday. So this is what the kids are currently doing, I love that Ben reads where he falls after lunch or stay's where he was with book he was reading at lunch and the world passes him by while the story takes over.  I love that Polly loves SSR just as much not only because she loves books but also because of the sense of accomplishment she gets from reading a book by herself ... this independence of learning is so good for her self esteem in general.

Reminder for this time next year, to have lots of fun activities to partake in when the weather is miserable outside and it makes the class feel a bit down beat and gloomy :(
