What age do children stop reading in class?

At what age does teacher or an adult stop listening to a child read their reading book in class?

Googled this but couldn't find an answer.

Dd1 is 7 and in yr 3. She is on level 10 reading books.

According to her reading comments book noone in the school has heard her read since November as that was the last comment on it. Well that wasn't my comment. When I have asked my daughter she says noone listens to anyone in her class now. She only ever reads a book at home.

She went from stage 9 to 10 about a month ago and I just presumed her teacher had heard her read and told her to go to stage 10.

I have since asked Dd about this and she said her teacher told her to go to stage 10 because she has read all the stage 9 books.

Also, Dd is quite slow at her work in school. She says you are only allowed to change your reading book once you are finished your work. Therefore, Dd can have have the same book 4 days (has been known for a week) after she has finished it.

Does anyone know if the listening to the child read stops once they go to juniors?

My ds is in Yr5. He doesn't do individual reading with the teacher but does guided reading with the teacher and a group of other children every week.

We hear children read in school right up to Y6 but would not record it in a child's home reading comment book only in the child's reading file.

They read aloud to the class at secondary school too

I have questioned dd1 about when she reads to an adult in her class and she assures me she doesn't.

I am jsut getting a bit worried as she does struggle with some words in her reading books. i would be fine with this if I knew the teacher also heard her read but thinking it is only myself judging her reading ability is a bit daunting. I am also concerned that her reading level would go up, purely because she has read all books on a certain level even, though no teacher has heard her read any of those books.

i also found it strange that weekly until the end of Nov, someone from school has recorded her reading ability in the home reading comments book, but no one has since.

Her class teacher went off sick middle of December and was wondering if this maybe the reason. She has had a new teacher since Jan.

I teach yr 6 and we read with every child in the class at least once a week, in addition to their guided reading sessions. This is recorded in their home school books and the school record system. It is just as important to hear a yr 6 child read and discuss the text as it is a Yr R child, the discussion should however be different!

Was going to say all the way through to year 6 but dd does it at secondary too from time to time.

colie - you should go and talk to the teacher about it. DD is in yr 3 and is listened to "At least once a week individually". In reality this seems to mean that she and the other free readers are heard once a fortnight or so individually, and once a week in group reading. My friend with a DD who is not yet a free reader in the same class ahs told me before that her DD is listened to at least twice a week, which sounds like a sensible allocation of time available.
