Library Challenge Cards
These ‘Library Challenge’ cards were made for my class library, but they could be used in a school library as well. The idea was just to get the children excited about reading and properly engaged with the books, and they’ve really enjoyed working through the activities – an added bonus being that I use this work to decorate the walls of our library.
There’s a selection of 10 Library Challenge Cards, plus a ‘Library Challenge of the Week’ which just allows for changing things up a little without having to print and laminate more cards.

WAGOLL Diary Entry and Planning Sheet

Speech Punctuation Checklist Poster

WAGOLL Newspaper
This is a WAGOLL newspaper article, written using the beginning of the story of Kensuke's Kingdom (by Michael Murpurgo), but could be used as an example for any newspaper writing unit.
Possible uses:
- to annotate features of a newspaper
- as a model for writing own newspaper articles
- to critique - what is good and not-so-good about this article?
P.s. The family is not called 'Finnegan' in Kensuke's Kingdom - we are not told their surname so I made one up!
