A thread on reading aloud while pupils follow along in their own copy of the text... 🪡

There are plenty of edu-books out there that cover no new ground. In contrast, I genuinely don't think there is another book that does what Primary Reading Simplified does, i.e. shows teachers and school leaders *how* to organise *every* aspect of reading across a school.

Hi - just a reminder I run a book shop, supplying books to schools, with a great discount, especially on class sets, and a specialism in providing diverse and inclusive books. Please do email me any time to talk about ordering! [email protected]

Love the chess analogy illustrating why "Kids need to do vast amounts of decoding to become fluent readers":

Excited to start reading this to help us with our SDP priority next year. @MrsSDeputy won this from Christopher Such - thanks again!

Thank you Christopher Such for such an insightful session. You gave us lots to think about as we plan for the new academic year!

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Aidan Chambers. His reflections on reading, the environments that nurture it, and the centrality of talk have profoundly shaped the way I understand and teach literature. His influence will remain with me always.

I loved this book so much when I read it, I just bought two more copies for my co-teachers! If you are looking for a blueprint for how to teach reading incorporating effective research-based practices, you couldn't ask for a better guide. Christopher Such

My latest project! All about deepening number sense and introducing for children a range of accessible reasoning techniques. From the off, children can experience maths as a thinking, talking, creative subject. A sample section going to the mailing list tomorrow...👍

If you are in the Cambridgeshire area and want to hear me talk about an evidence-informed approach to teaching reading post-phonics, then this Thursday's after-school session might be of interest. ⬇️

** New resource ** We analysed the characteristics of words in 1200 books for children and young people. Properties of each word (frequencies, etc) are now available in an interactive website. cyp-lex.rastlelab.com

This is typically insightful stuff from Clare Sealy. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the development of writing. ⬇️

Our next keynote speaker is revealed…and it’s Christopher Such! We’re so excited to have Christopher Such joining us in November. Do you know all there is to know about reading? Join us to find out: hfl.mobi/RFShowcase25SO… #RFShowcase #readingfluency #readingfluencyshowcase

This is an accessible yet nuanced description of how schools might support young people to flourish. Well worth your time. ⬇️
