With the new academic year approaching, this picturebook assembly overview might be useful to people. The suggested books cover themes around empathy, inclusion and diversity, and are all texts I've used in the classroom. Any shares appreciated. Link here: padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

Just finished rewriting the overview for a weekly picturebook assembly which focuses on empathy, inclusion and diversity. It's still a work in progress but please feel free to use and adapt. All shares appreciated. The link is on my Padlet: padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

I would be very keen to read the write up as and when you do one. It's an area I'm looking to develop further after being inspired by some of the things I've heard yours do 😊

My class have fully embraced your idea of daily 'pod' time (poem of the day) and they have fallen in love with poetry since. They're always reading it, writing it and performing it. It's now time to spread their love of poetry to the rest of the school through these great ideas in the blog 😊

Book talk is an essential part of building a classroom reading culture but can be quite tricky to get up and running. Our Reading Champions came up with a list of about sixty questions that can help get the conversations started. Hopefully they're useful. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

I think these books would make a perfect pair under a Christmas tree this year so to make this come true for somebody it's time for a festive giveaway!

Repost, like and follow for the chance to win a signed copy of both books. Winner chosen at random at 11am Monday 16 December. UK only. Good luck!

Why read books? Because reading opens minds & hearts. It helps us imagine different lives and different worlds; it can help us build a better world. So please keep reading books with kids, and encouraging them to read. There is nothing more important. #literacy #books #reading
