Create a whole school approach to literacy and reading with these eye-catching, visual book lists for your secondary school or academy.
This is a comprehensive set of TEN core subject departmental curriculum linked book lists. Within each subject resource, there are TWO separate A3 posters - one for Key Stage 3 and one for Key Stage 4.
These posters are designed to concrete subject-specific knowledge, concepts and vocabulary and link modern children’s and teen literature with important topics that students learn about in school as part of the curriculum.
This resource will encourage reading for pleasure across your school and will inspire further reading and discussions between students and teachers.
Download and print them out and then place in classrooms, communal departmental areas, or around school - you could even give them out to students directly!
If you don’t want to buy the whole bundle, individual subject posters are also available to buy in my shop.
