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.

An Among Us take on Secret Student
Choose one Imposter and keep their name annonymous. Throughout the day encourage everyone to try their best.
If the Imposter had worked hard, reveal their name and decide on a reward that best suits your class.
If the Imposter has not worked hard, put their name back into the envelope and don’t reveal who it was. No reward given.
A great way to encourage positive whole class behaviour without singling individual pupils out.

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.

As it looks like Digital Learning is here to stay, I created a clear document to keep track of all information needed to access recommended apps and websites at home as well as in class.
As pupils are likely to be given lots of new information about how learning is going to look, I want their core learning to be as simple and straightforward for them as possible. Hopefully this layout will support that.

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.
