The Power of a Rich Reading Classroom (häftad, eng)

There is something quite magical about forming a connection to a book: the way in which the words on the page can conjure feelings of excitement, fun, joy, laughter or tears, channeling the part of our being that fundamentally makes us human.

The journey that children take as they travel towards becoming a competent and confident reader can be a long, winding and complex road.

This book helps teachers understand how to build a quality reading rich curriculum that supports the needs of all the children in their classroom.

Starting with a section on choosing texts, the book goes on to explore a variety of essential teaching approaches from a read aloud programme, to drama and storytelling, art and illustration.

This is a practical resource that provides teachers and schools ideas to support the embedding of text experience and deliver a reading rich curriculum that leads to higher student attainment and working at greater depth.
