A lovely resource we use at school to teach reading is called Giglets. It is a website that gives your child access to hundreds of reading books and stories. They can be read online or as an audio book which can be listened to. Reading test style questions and higher order thinking skills (HOTS) questions will accompany many books. Your child will need their username and password to log in on this website.
