Test your class on their knowledge of books and emojis with these two fun quizzes! These can be used in class or as a fun home learning activity which could link in with World Book Day or other literary school events. Perhaps you could challenge your class to come up with some of their own?! There are two versions - a Picture Book round and a Chapter Book round - so all ages and book lovers can join in the fun! Answers are included. Inspired by Portsmouth Library Service. I hope you enjoy this resource. You can find more of my illustrations here: www.instagram.com/verityrobson ©Verity Robson 2021

An illustrated advent calendar for December 2021 with 25 reading-related activities chosen to inspire a love of reading for pleasure, and also get excited about Christmas! This could be used in classrooms, libraries, or for families to enjoy at home. If printed in A3, you might be able to cover each box with a small post-it note to reveal a new activity each day! Each activity is loosely related to Christmas and some of them include: ‘Draw your favourite book character in a Christmas jumper!’ (for Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day), ‘Read a book with a red or green cover’ and ‘Ask a friend, someone in your family, or your teacher what their favourite Christmas book is!’. I hope you enjoy this resource. You can find more of my illustrations here: www.instagram.com/verityrobson Please do not remove the credit for this work, thank you. ©Verity Robson 2021

This could be used in classrooms and as part of home learning. Children can colour in each day they complete the activity but no pressure to do them all or even in the same order!
