A reading out loud challenge - get your students reading out loud by engaging in a short, usually funny, activity that challenges their diction, reading fluency and expression. The theme of the reading out loud challenges change weekly;
A summary starter that challenges children to summarise what they have read so far;
Vocabulary pre-teaching - every lesson contains the key words to help all children access that lesson’s section of the book;
An activity to complete in books after that day’s reading. This could be a set of questions, a short writing task or even sketching a scene from the story.
