£14.20£19.00 (-25%)
Transform the teaching of reading to primary pupils! In this book, Jane Considine reveals her structured, rigorous system for teaching reading. Reading is a typical stumbling block for children. In order to get to grips with literacy and comprehension, primary school children of all attainment levels will benefit from Hooked on Books’ revolutionary methods. In this 250-page book, Jane Considine builds on the English National Curriculum objectives for whole class teaching with activities, exercises and teaching methods based on a whole framework for unlocking the teaching of reading and comprehension. Key aspects of the Hooked On Books framework include: Book Talk – A whole class comprehension and targeted group approach to teaching reading, ensuring pupils of all levels participate. The Reading Rainbow – A fully encompassing approach that targets reading competencies, covers the English National Curriculum and develops understanding. Demonstration Reading – The process of teachers modelling the internal thinking of a reader. This is to demonstrate how a reader thinks during the process of ‘reading for meaning’ and how they internalise and understand. Demonstration Comprehension – The process of clear, out-loud thinking by the teacher while modelling answers to questions and showcasing ‘thesaurus thinking’ to ensure the most precise words are used. Jane Considine is an experienced educational practitioner and author of revolutionary learning resources with over 25 years in education consultancy. “Book talk” is the jewel in the crown of our whole-school reading strategy. It supports and challenges the children’s understanding and comprehension of texts, enabling them to become inspired, confident and enthusiastic readers.” – Darren Smith, Head Teacher

After hearing about Jane Considine last year from colleagues who attended a course, I used her free resources to transform the teaching of reading.
Reading this book, has really helped me to adapt my reading sessions and I’ve already lent the book out to colleagues for their CPD as well.
Goodbye dull Guided Reading, Hello to children loving their reading sessions!
