Year 4 - shared reading - Autumn 1 Week 1

This planning has been produced primarily for my own personal use (so there will be mistakes) and I’ll be using it in the classroom myself in future.

Each week of Shared Reading planning includes:

• planning document
• PPT with the shared reading text/to share whole class
• shared reading questions ready to print
• shared reading text ready to print.

The way we do shared reading is through one text which ALL children share and engage with. It’s the same text throughout the week. Sometimes the same story follows on for a few weeks/half term but over the year there is a variety of texts.

We spend the first 15 minutes on the No Nonsense spelling scheme which is separate to this plan but your school might be interested in using.

Skill focuses over the week
Monday - vocabulary, word building, retrieval and recording
Tuesday - inference
Wednesday - Summarising
Thursday - Explain & justify / or author’s choices

Hope you find it useful!
