This is a slideshow I created for my Stage Two class on the book “Piggybook” by Anthony Browne.

Piggybook is a great text to use in shared reading or Literature Circles to teach perspective, visual literacy elements and characterisation. There are so many rich discussions which stem from the text.

The slideshow focusses on one page at a time. Students can see the text and illustrations and there are discussion questions for each page, of both a literal and inferential nature. There are also questions which connect to student’s own thoughts and experiences.

Feel free to check out my other Anthony Browne resources in my store.

Some reviews:
"I used this with my Korean students. They enjoyed the book very much and the discussion questions were very good to get them to express their thoughts in English. Thank you :) "

“Thanks again Literacy Guru for a wonderful resource. I’m a big fan! Your love and knowledge of literature shines through every single resource you create, and this one was no exception. My students loved this book - they were laughing during shared reading, what more could you ask for! Highly recommend.”

Bundle

Anthony Browne MEGA bundle - 6 books - NO PREP - Visual Literacy - Comp.

This is a mega-bundle of six books by Anthony Browne. The books included are: * Voices in the Park * Gorilla * Zoo * Piggybook * Through the Magic Mirror * Silly Billy The focus of the book units is shared reading. The units of work were designed around shared reading sessions and, in particular, accessing student's visual literacy skills. The larger units of work are "Voices in the Park", "Gorilla", "Silly Billy" and "Zoo", which all contain literature circle task cards, linked Creative Arts activities, step-by-step shared reading guides and much more. I love using the work of Anthony Browne in my classroom, and my students thoroughly enjoyed these units of work, particularly the consolidation tasks with Creative Arts integrated throughout. This is the equivalent to WEEKS of literacy teaching and learning - we spent ten weeks in total looking at the work of Anthony Browne using these resources. Whilst I teach in an Australian context, these books are not linked to specific Australian content and would be well-suited to any English speaking classroom. Spelling and grammar are UK/Australian. I used these books in a Year 3/4 classroom but they would equally be suitable for older children. PLEASE NOTE: These resources were all genuinely created in real-time for my classes over the last two years. As a result, the units of work differ in content and structure. Please use the individual prices as an indication of the resources included (or simply look at the individual products). For example, Voices in the Park is a very comprehensive unit as we used this book for several weeks. It contains mini-lessons, literature circle task cards, printables, assessments and shared reading lessons. The "Piggybook" resource, on the other hand, is very simple because we only used this for shared reading without integrated resources. If you enjoy this resource, please consider leaving lovely feedback. It really helps little seller-mums like me out (and this will give you a great discount to use on future resources). Feel free to check out all the other Literacy resources in my store. Happy reading!
