Books we are reading in class this term include:
Reading Books
Reading Records – once they have been given out, reading records should be returned to school every Thursday with a comment about how your child has read in the past week. This is so the reading records can be checked and a new reading book can be allocated or given. We also give out the reading for pleasure/sharing books on Thursdays, so these books also need to be brought to school along with the reading records. Please note that some children will be bringing home a physical copy of the book, wherever possible and others will be issued an ebook.
Reading for Pleasure
As part of our continued focus on reading in school, we would like to continue the lending library of books within each class. This will enable the children to foster a passion and love of reading at Belmont and ensure that they have access to high quality texts.
Please find links to the book list that has a variety of books that we would love to have in class. Once a book has been donated to the class we will add a tick to show we now have it. Please check the list to ensure that the book that you would like to donate is one that we don’t already have.
These books will be stamped to show who has generously donated them and shared with all the class. The books come from the Recommended Books for Year 2 List which can be found below.

The below list is part of an initiative called Word Aware that we are using in school. We thought it would be helpful to share this list with you so that you can use some of these words at home when discussing the topic. If your child speaks a different language at home, it would be helpful to discuss and translate these words using your home language. We may add to this list during the topic as new words are introduced.
