KS2 at Great Coates are currently in an Accelerated Reader Word Count Competition! The children read books and are then quizzed, electronically using the Accelerated Reader Programme. For every book quiz passed the children’s word count is added to the class total! The children in the winning class will each win a prize the child with the highest word count in each year group will win a large Easter egg! The teachers will also nominate a student who has made the most effort in their class. So far most of our Key Stage 2 classes have read over 1 million words and one class has read 3 and a half million. The children are getting very competitive.
