    60-Second Reads

    The National Curriculum states that:


    Pupils in Year 5 and 6 should be able to read aloud a wide range of poetry and books written at an
    age-appropriate interest level with accuracy and at a reasonable speaking pace. They should be able
    to read most words effortlessly and to work out how to pronounce unfamiliar written words with
    increasing automaticity.
    This resource aims to give you the ability to test a pupil’s level of fluency to this expected standard. Each
    60-Second Read Activity Card features a short extract of age-appropriate text with an average word count
    of around 90-120 words. The cumulative word count for each line of text is shown in the left-hand margin
    of each card. Each of the cards also contains a set of comprehension questions that link to the KS2 reading
    content domains.
    Each different question type has its own canine helper to remind children of what they need to do to answer
    a question appropriately:
