Greetings from Wandsworth teachers!
Fantastic resources - the rest of the school want to get their hands on the books!
Our new book corners really got the children going...
Give your year 5 class the ownership of their reading corner and see the results!
My year 2 class really love Biscuit Bear (by Mini Grey). I've read it 7 times and they still ask for it!

message from Bristol teachers
Using Traction Man, the children have enjoyed being different characters - particularly the dish cloth and brush! We've had a whale of a time.
We're really excited about trying some of the books now we've become familiar with the sequences.
We've started doing whole school reading assemblies where the children bring a book in and read with their buddies. It's a noisy but lovely way to begin assembly and has raised the profile of reading.

My class liked reading Beegu - Heather Y2 teacher
2 chapters into The Ice Palace and children said 'Is is a true story'
We did an assembley on Beegu - it was good!
That's all for now!

The Brighton, Hove and Hastings group:
When reading Wolf Brother a child commented "It was like a movie..." "Miss Baker does good sound effects!"
Dare to ask you class what is wrong with your book corner and be surprised.
Revamp your book corner and be surprised by the reaction from the class.
We have inspired the whole school with the POR!
