Finally @kirkbyhigh showed how their Power of Reading journey over the last 5 years is being developed in the Y7, 8 & 9 intervention groups, noting impact on ‘Those children that come alive in these sessions where they don’t elsewhere.’ Purposeful intervention at its best. 4/4 https://t.co/d9HmGts10i

Next @HopePrimarySch shared what a reading culture looks, sounds & feels like in a video that so clearly demonstrated this. Grammar is expertly planned to be contextualised within the teaching by teachers who know their texts and curriculum. Creative approaches feed writing. 3/4 https://t.co/f0JNK0knng
