Reading for Pleasure Year 5

In this lesson, we will explore examples of genre in literature. We will reflect on what reading for pleasure means. We will spend time thinking about different important texts to us and create a 'Reading River' to show our own personal journeys in reading.

In this lesson, we will explore how reading builds empathy. We will share recommended reads and explore character traits in order to describe a favourite character.

In this lesson, we will develop reading for pleasure through book recommendations. We will focus on poetry, picture books and non-fiction. We will then generate our own recommendations to share with others.
