As reading is so important for children, we have recently purchased a subscription for the programme, Reading Eggs. This online programme is designed to motivate and excite your child to improve their reading skills. It has proved to be an enjoyable tool to encourage children’s enthusiasm for reading; whilst intending to develop their decoding and comprehension skills.

Reading Eggs is split into Reading Eggs for KS1 and Reading Eggspress for KS2.  Within these areas there are lots of opportunities for children to practise reading skills through games, books and lessons as well as being able to create their own Avatar in their virtual world. When your child completes a book and a comprehension quiz or a reading/spelling lesson, they will win eggs, allowing them to spend these on improving their Avatar or playing other games.

Within school, your child has completed a placement test which has been designed to find the correct level for your child to start at, ensuring your child can access the reading, comprehension and games. Therefore when your child logs in at home they are ready to explore the different games, books and lessons. Your child’s individual log in details have been sent home with them.

The depth of the Reading Eggs and Reading Eggspress programmes means that your child can continue their reading journey for as long as they need. The programmes enable children to learn to read, and then helps them improve by building real, long term reading skills, empowering them to become lifelong readers and learners.
