If you like football or you don't, football is a great way to engage some children with reading. Lots of children will enthuse about football. Lots of them will read about it, even if they aren't that into reading.
We can use the football interest this week to get more children reading for pleasure.
Here are a few resources that might be useful this week.
A toolkit of ideas for activities and challenges using football to improve literacy in your classroom and library.
A free five-part story about international football. Five x five minute reads.
A letter to go home to parents about how they can use the increased interest in football to help their children read for pleasure.
Articles by myself and teachers about using sport to engage children with reading.
