Updated my y5/6 reading shelves today. Still too many for the reading framework, but I'm happy with the selection. Spaces for the children to store their fiction and non fiction choices along the bottom. #ks2 #readingforpleasure #rfp #ukla #ourfp #readingrocks #year5 #year6

Great chat at our #OURfP Teachers’ Reading Group yesterday sharing our development projects and discussing the many things we read for our new library display - from song lyrics to seed packets!
