Home readers Reading comments are appreciated, or at least a signature so we know they have read at home. The children have the opportunity to choose a library book each week. Opportunity to reinforce reading skills and enjoy listening or sharing books at home Our aim is for children to read for pleasure and to share a book everyday. We find that the children who read at least 3 times a week at home make the most progress.
