We’ve used our reading lessons in the morning to supplement the afternoon non-core subjects - this, like you say, gives everyone some background knowledge and opens up the non-core learning for deeper and more complex lessons. It’s worked really well this year, even though it’s meant rewriting our reading planning (meaning it’s only our first year doing it). Looking forward to seeing how much more of an impact it makes.
