I’ve taken inspiration from ‘Hooked On Books’ by Jane Considine (2017). In her book, Jane seeks to transform the teaching of reading based on her fundamental principles in order to convert struggling readers into book lovers. She has been involved in supporting reading in schools since 2000 and advocates the importance of reading for pleasure being the biggest single predictor of academic success.
In this resource, you'll be presented with a wide range of information across three themes: Importance, best practice and practical ideas. There are also reflection tools and templates to edit to support planning and whole school implementation. This download includes a detailed slide show, a 3-minute walk-through video, 4 editable slides and URL references.
Within this download, you can:
● Access 3 digital links (on page 2) to files that support this welcome sheet.
● Use the materials across your organisation copyright free.
● This resource was produced by Lynn How.
