Our second meeting broadened our knowledge of picture books – we added these to our online “blether board” – a mix of old and new and reminded ourselves that they DO have a place in KS2! We reflected on schools’ book borrowing cultures: how to ensure younger readers get chances to choose books purely for pleasure. We also homed in on our areas of focus and made use of EOPS to inspire us, e.g. book blankets in EY and reading buddies further up the school.
