Blending with non-fiction, these well-researched biographies can be a really good entry point to a prominent mathematician’s life and a stepping stone for further research.

Great choice of text. Had it ready to share this eve. So many quality texts to explore shape, space and measure.
Love the link to positional vocabulary in picturebooks. Always trying to negate the ‘that bit’ or ‘there!’ 👍🏼

A2. My class have loved the interactivity & engagement with Fighting Fantasy books. There’s an ace example of practice on the OU website which explores how this might work. Super for cross-chat book talk. A great gateway into reading!

For me, sharing texts w/ challenging themes, you have to have a really good awareness of the lives of the readers in your class. Sometimes texts can open up experiences/thoughts/emotions long since buried. It’s important to create that safe space for discussion.

Not a memory as a child, but the strongest memory I have of someone reading short stories aloud is my PGCE mentor. He finished most days with a Paul Jennings story and the kids loved it. Had a huge impact on me and my practice.

I'd love to get a chance one day to read this with a group of children or a class. But, I was really interesting reading it with my son. It kind of took on a whole new meaning mid way through lockdown.

I couldn't get through a whole without mentioning these. Both absolutely perfect for Year 4 and two of my favourite read-alouds. Edging towards classic status already I feel.

After kicking the year off with a few of my favourite Paul Jennings stories, we dived straight into The Super Miraculous Journey of Freddie Yates by and . It's a genuinely funny book and was hugely popular with my Y5/6 class.

I should’ve included this cover as this is the one I remember being read on the carpet at school. Never looked at a supply teacher the same again since. Magic!

A1: I think the more things you speak/read aloud, the more things you love listening to. As a child,it was a blend of fiction/PBs & I always remember my dad & I reading factual books aloud. That developed into learning languages like Japanese. Sharing snowballs.

Q2- Help them to discover and explore the poetry that's relevant to them, their experiences, their families, their lives, their futures. Have the books available in the classroom but let them lead the way.
