Reading Miss Carden’s reading program is built on the following foundational elements: phonetic word attack skills, understanding of grammatical construction, keyword and title, vocabulary development, mental imagery, rhythm, and critical thinking. The students further develop these skills in their study of the classics. Daily attention is given to sequence, fluency, recall, categories, and organization of thought. Phonetically, these are closely integrated with the spelling sequence and grammatically integrated with the language work. This unity builds understanding, self-confidence, security, and success. At every grade level the reading and literature books combine to introduce approximately 2000 vocabulary words each year. In order to strengthen both vocabulary and comprehension, Carden Academy assigns independent reading homework daily, beginning in the Second Grade, as well as required Summer Reading in grades 4-8. Miss Carden’s ultimate goal was to teach a command of the language! Throughout the program emphasis is placed on thinking, enjoyment, and uplifting attitudes and viewpoints. www.CardenAcademyHB.com.

Watch Julie Walters read an extract from her autobiography, That’s Another Story. ABOUT THE BOOK: Julie Walters has been described as the nation’s most popular actress and comedienne. She has been delighting us on screen and on stage for over 25 years – and now, for the first time, she tells us her own story. Born in 1950s Birmingham Julie was sent to school in a convent. She always wanted to be an actress but to appease her mother she first went into nursing. This didn’t last for long – she soon went to join the Everyman Theatre in Liverpool. West End success was followed by films, and an Academy Award nomination for her role in Educating Rita. Julie’s collaborations with her close friend Victoria Wood have given us, among others, the unforgettable character ‘Mrs Overall’, and she’s recently charmed a new generation of fans playing Mrs Weasley in the Harry Potter films. Julie’s life away from the public eye has not run so smoothly. Shortly after the death of her mother, her two-year-old daughter Maisie was diagnosed with leukaemia. Julie Walters reveals with characteristic wit and candour the highs and the lows of a remarkable life. For more info on Julie go to: www.orionbooks.co.uk
