Description
Summary:In this second programme exploring ways of making reading more enjoyable for pupils, we follow Year 6 teacher Matthew Velada-Billson facilitating a book-talk session with his class, and introducing them to the novel, 'Goodnight Mr. Tom'. The book talk reveals a range of responses to reading; some pupils are already deep into the world of fantasy epics, while others still prefer picture-books - and a minority don't really see the point of reading at all. With this in mind, Matthew begins the process of getting the whole class to engage with 'Goodnight Mr. Tom' by reading the first chapter aloud and discussing some key moments about character. Then a brisk pair-work exercise gets the children up and moving before they're given specific scenes to work on in larger groups. This drama activity brings the serious readers into a world of physical expression, while giving more kinaesthetic children good reason to invest in a relatively long written text.
