Introducing a fun and educational classroom activity perfect for students of all ages - Sorting Children’s Book Covers! In this activity, students will be presented with a collection of real children’s book covers and their task will be to sort them into two groups - fiction and non-fiction. This activity not only helps students develop their critical thinking skills but also fosters a love of reading and learning.
The activity begins by introducing the concept of fiction and non-fiction to the students. Then, students will be shown a collection of colourful and engaging book covers, each representing a different children’s book. The students will work in small groups to sort the covers into the two categories, discussing their reasoning and decision-making process with their classmates.
Not only does this activity promote teamwork and collaboration, but it also helps students learn about different genres and types of books, encouraging them to explore new subjects and stories. Whether your students are just starting to develop their reading skills or are seasoned book lovers, this activity will provide a fun and engaging way for them to explore the world of children’s literature.
So why wait? Incorporate this exciting and educational activity into your next lesson plan and watch as your students develop a love of reading and a better understanding of fiction and non-fiction!
2 group cards and 2 sets of book covers.

Enhance your child’s reading journey with our comprehensive RWI set 3 Phonics Flashcard Bundle. This bundle includes 159 green word cards and 20 flashcards, divided into two sets: one set with sound buttons and one set without for children who have mastered decoding. The RWI Phonics program uses systematic synthetic phonics to help children learn to read words, and these flashcards provide a visual and interactive way of practising and reinforcing these skills.
Flashcards are an effective tool for children as they offer a fun and engaging way to learn. By breaking down and blending letter sounds, children are able to build words and develop their reading skills. The sound buttons on the first set of cards provide extra support for children who are still developing their decoding abilities. This bundle is versatile and can be used in both online and classroom settings, making it the perfect addition to any RWI Phonics program. Give your child the gift of successful reading with our RWI Phonics Flashcard Bundle.
These green word cards also come in a black and white version if you want to print onto coloured card!
