Providing suitable books

Newquay Junior Academy expect pupils to use reading books for practise with words that they can decode. Pupils should not be using reading books at home with words that they have to guess.

Pupils will choose a ‘text that tempts’ from Accelerated Reader, which is matched to their ability. As well as that, they will also select another library book. This second book may be one that they wish to share with an adult, an old favourite or a specific area of non-fiction or poetry which they want to explore.
