How to use this teaching resource

  • HOW TO USE OUR PRINTABLE CONCEPT BOOKS
  • Model with a large A3 size booklet first – read and share a book with the class – answer the questions as a class first.
  • An ideal follow-up activity to guided reading – as part of literacy rotations or groups.
  • Instead of making into a book – print at ‘multiple pages per sheet’ print 4 in 1 – instructions here…here is the result…
  • my-reading-book-sample-1
  • ALL 4 PAGES PRINTED ON 1 A4 SHEET (PRINTER SETTINGS 4 PAGES PER SHEET)
  • my reading book sample 2
  • ALL 4 PAGES PRINTED OVER 2 A4 SHEETS (PRINTER SETTINGS – 2 PAGES PER SHEET)
  • Would also be a great homework activity – children read a book from home or their home reader and next night fill in the little book.
