With the National Year of Reading approaching, a few people have asked if I'll be running the 'Building a Classroom Reading Culture' session again. Doing it twice, on Sat 12th Jan at 10:00am and on Mon 14th Jan at 3:45pm. Link below. eventbrite.co.uk/o/jon-biddle-9…

School staff shouldn't have to scrabble around or spend their own money to get hold of new books and reading material for children. Dedicated money needs to be set aside by the government, just like it is for the PE and sport premium. It matters far too much to be left to chance.

We've taken part in @poetrybyheart's competition for the past few years and our pupils have always had a great time. It's a fantastic way to raise the profile of poetry and help children grow in confidence. There's still plenty of time to take part. poetrybyheart.org.uk

You have 10 half hour sessions to read one book to a group of year 5 reluctant reader boys who are going to follow along in the text. Need to grip and inspire them. Book needs to be finished in those 5 hrs including chat time. Which book do you choose? #amreading @jonnybid pls RT


If you're after a Christmas picturebook that will be adored from Reception to Year 6, you can't go wrong with How Does Santa Go Down the Chimney? by Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen. Funny, surreal and extremely entertaining.

Do consider getting involved with the Young Poet Laureate programme, organised by the National Literacy Trust. It's an exciting way to champion young poetic voices and really raise the profile of poetry in schools. More information here: literacytrust.org.uk/programmes/you… @Literacy_Trust


Each week, our Year 5/6 Reading Buddies go and read empathy-rich picturebooks and talk about empathy with pupils in EYFS and KS1. Between them, they've created a bank of 20 questions to use as a starting point. Please feel free to download from my Padlet. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/rea…

I'm delighted to be a Reading Champion for the @booksfortopics #BookFriday campaign! The campaign is all about celebrating the best children's books. My recommended book is People Like Stars by Patrice Lawrence. There's also a free resource kit here: booksfortopics.com/booklists/topi…

Inspirational day at the @EmpathyLabUK conference. Listening to researchers, authors, teachers, publishers and librarians talk about the importance of empathy and its links to reading reinforced how important Empathy Day is going to be for schools in the National Year of Reading.
