Summary of Student Voice

From the surveys, here is what the children are saying.
I find  reading hard when there are:

• Trick words;
• Word I can't sound out;
• Noises or distractions;
• New words I don't know;
• Old books.

Also, when I need to:

• summarise stories;
• think about the picture;
• use a range of strategies.

I need to learn to:

• Know more words;
• Use different strategies to read words;
• Read hard words;
• Explain things in my own words;
• Focus on my work;
• Sound out;
• Read fluently;
• Point to the words;
• Answer hard questions .

To help me read I:

• Sound out or chunk words;
• reread, skip words and /or read on;
• Think what would make sense;
• Ask for help.
