Give pupils a visual example of what you expect from their jotter work. This sets a clear expectation when they complete tasks in their jotters. There is one for a literacy jotter and a numeracy squared jotter.
Of course my priority when pupils return to school is their well-being, work will come second. However when the time comes these will be great to set expectations with.

A short and visual way for pupils to write a review about a book they have enjoyed and would recommend.
Sometimes choosing a book can be difficult, especially when the library is filled with amazing choices. With these on display with recommendations from their classmates, a short summary of the story and key themes in the shape of hashtags, choosing a book is much simpler.

I wanted to create a new library display that promotes a sense of adventure in reading. The adventure theme in Up! inspired this resource, as well as some amazing displays I seen on Instagram/Twitter.
I drew the Up! inspired house myself as I wanted to incorporate reading into the drawing. This took a lot of time and effort, but was really worth it.
