Today is World Book Day, and we had a visit from our nursery group, who brought along their favourite books to P5. The P5 children took the opportunity to read the books the nursery children had brought along, and then questioned them about the books to see how they had enjoyed them!
Have you logged on to the Home Connect website yet?
Did you know you can log on to a website called Home Connect to see your child’s reading results and progress? It’s very simple to do…
https://ukhosted2.renlearn.co.uk/1894387/HomeConnect/Login.aspx
Click on the link above and simply enter your child’s username and password (all children should know this) and you will be able to:
■review results on AR quizzes taken in school
■view the number of books read, words read and quizzes passed
■see a virtual bookshelf showing the books your child has read
You will also see a link to ‘E-Mail Setup’ at the top of the page that gives you the chance to sign up to receive an e-mail every time your child takes a quiz to share the results with you instantly!
Is there a book at home that you’d like to check to see if it’s on AR?
Go to the link below and type in the title of your book, e.g. ‘Matilda’ and search. If it is there you will see the front cover of the book and information beside it.

Once your child has read the book, make sure they remember to take the quiz in school! With a couple of weeks over Christmas, there’s sure to be plenty of time to catch up with some reading!
