I heard Tom read this at the Reading for Pleasure 🧶 Notts Conference - it’s a beautiful story of how it feels to discover reading and how it helps you to grow. It’s an absolute must have, wonderful for chn/adults. A true reflection of a reading journey and the hope reading gives to all.
I just loved this keynote from Teresa Cremin - passionate, practical and powerful. If children don't love reading, they just won't choose to do it. We have to inspire children with a self-determined desire to read, not just teach them about language and literary techniques.
At the end of each school year, I write a letter to my class which reflects on their individual and class reading journeys. The latest one is in the new edition of Educate, the National Education Union magazine. The link is here: issuu.com/nationaluniono…
3KC loved ending the day with #empathy with the new book from the awesome Tom Percival. It fits in beautifully with reading for pleasure showing the power of books building bridges to new places. We reflected on the kindness shown at the end of the story💕 EmpathyLabUK
Just wonderful hearing Teachers prioritising the joy of reading in their classrooms today Townville Academy “Can we read a book together” brought music to our ears. We are seeing so many areas that are reacting to the chn’s interests. Staff taking time to ask the chn too 🧡💙
Happy new term! Hope everyone going to school/pre-school has a brilliant time! And hope that you enjoy the journey to get there too! Illustration from ‘A Wild Walk to School’ Macmillan Children's Books #AWildWalkToSchool
A visit to Woodbridge Books and finally purchased ‘The Library Mouse’ Frances Tosdevin Sophia O'Connor Illustration A story of courage - becoming a writer and finding your writing identity. Can’t wait to use this with #EYFS chn to inspire writing for pleasure. Stunning illustrations. #RfP
Love celebrating the summer reading challenge with our children. We had the Library come in and launch before summer and then I wait for all my lovely summer readers to bring their certificates in. I particularly love the book chat in my office. St. Matthew's C.E. Primary School
