Anyone interested in building the understanding and practice of Reading for Pleasure, please have a look at this free online CPD for the new academic year. @The_UKLA @OpenUni_RfP #OURfp

If you are looking for some PD this year and are keen to develop your knowledge and practices of Reading for Pleasure, take a look at this. I'm based in Malaysia but the group will run online so anyone is welcome if the time zone works for you! #OURfP @The_UKLA

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

Thank you @Schoolbookclubs for these fantastic books (and for the David Litchfield @dc_litchfield for the author talk) I'll be sure to share these with my colleagues.

Always a good read, thanks for sharing @jonnybid

[Jon Biddle @jonnybid]

My latest RfP article for @NEUnion Educate magazine is about why authentic representation in children's books matters so much. It draws heavily on the pioneering work of Rudine Sims Bishop, who explains it far better than I ever could. Hopefully, it's a useful read.

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

@BarringtonStoke @BookSuperhero2 @SteveColeBooks Love these. Have used World Burn Down and Trashland in classes.

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

Thank you @HGold_author for the book reco in your video on @authorfy My little bookworm loved Beastlands and read it in a couple of hours on a train journey (and again this weekend) Fab book @Zoologist_Jess !

[Jon Biddle @jonnybid]

Please don't leave class storytime to videos and audiobooks. My pupils evolve after every book we share together. Relationships changed, ideas put forward, friendships built, opinions challenged, empathy developed, discussions had. It builds a class like nothing else.

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

I'm swaying between The Niggle and The Fret right now, and could turn into The Panic at any point ... Love the Wobbles page in Barbara too

[SF Said @whatSFSaid]

How can we expect kids to love reading if we don't show them that WE love reading?! I have seen this magic work time and again. You can change their lives forever and help them become lifelong readers just by sharing your own love of reading and books! #literacy

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

@BookIslandBooks Emmett and Caleb! love that book

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

Looking forward to this later in the week. Reading through the RfP research article now. The gap between teacher' intentions and reality is a real difficulty (I know!)- how strongly do you want to prioritise RfP...?

[Mrs H @gluestickgal]

New school year, new @OpenUni_RfP Teachers as Readers group! Come along and join us - DM @Middlesbro_TRG ! #middlesbrough #northyorkshire

[Ceridwen Eccles @Teacherglitter]

Introducing to you all the cover of @LindsayGalvin new book, ‘The Great Phoenix of London.’

A unique spin on the infamous tragedy mixed in with mythology, history and science.

[The FOSIL Group @TheFosilGroup]

Delighted to share about @BlanchelandeC Signature Work #inquiry @SJSUiSchool's *Leap into the Future of School Libraries* Conference with @barbstripling and Jenny Toerien. Presentations freely available here: https://t.co/Ag3vqpCvT7. Great to catch @Elizabethutch's presentation.

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

This is always so useful!

[Christopher Edge @edgechristopher]

.@MrEPrimary is such a great champion of children's books and I'm so pleased to see him pick out BLACK HOLE CINEMA CLUB in his round-up of all the exciting titles coming out this month. Huge thanks, Scott!

[Hannah O'D @MrsOD_reads]

I share these in the library, the children love them! Boosts skim/scan reading skills and they are great fun (if not frustrating at times 😂)
