Novelist Robert Radcliffe is working with Year 6 pupils on a Reading Aloud project this term. “Reading aloud is obviously very different from reading to ourselves,” says Mr Radcliffe. “So in this project we are working on clarity, fluency and expression in our reading. We start each session with a breathing exercise, and conduct some of it standing up. As well as improving our reading and speaking skills, it is good for our self confidence – and our posture!”
