Open Reading Project

With the recent closure of schools due to coronovirus, I have set up a reading project for our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils at Warden House Primary School.

I have created this site to share the resources with anyone who would like to take part and share the resource with their pupils.

Through this open page I have posted the resources for anyone to join in with the study of the books used while we support our children as they continue to learn at home.

The activities are have been structured so that pupils can read and work on one chapter a day.

All of the resources are taken from open source and out of copyright materials.

The resources can be accessed using the drop-down menu above and using the book images below.

All texts are freely available through Project Gutenberg in a variety of formats.

All audiobooks are available through the Librivox site.

All of the comprehension quizzes are created on Google Forms.

The comprehension quizzes will not be 'marked' and no pupil details, names or emails will be collected.

I have shared this project to enable pupils to engage with high quality texts; and to support teacher workload in providing opportunities for their pupils at home.

I aim to publish a competition for each text used and will have prizes for the best entries. If anyone would like to donate a downloadable prize, for example a book token, please contact me here.

I look forward to seeing children's responses to the quizzes and their entries to the competitions.
