Variety of Literacy displays over the years...

Here are a few photos of different Literacy displays from my classrooms over the years! All themed differently and reflecting different topics! Some a celebration of the children's work and some working walls! Please leave a comment to tell me what you think!

Magic Box Poems

Creative poems inspired by the Kit Wright poem - The Magic Box.

Diary and Letter Writing

A variety of genres of writing inspired by the book 'Friend or Foe' by Michael Morpurgo.

Spelling washing line

Hanging spelling rules on a washing line to remind children of the rules we are currently learning. Easily accessible and easily referred to in lessons.

Art through Literacy

Children explore the setting in 'Flat Stanley in Space' by creating their own art work of Planet Tyrra.

Animals Display for September!

In September I am moving Year groups to teach a mixed Year 3/4 class. I am very excited about teaching the younger ones after 3 years of teaching Year5/6 children! Our first whole school topic is 'animals and classification'. Has anyone got any good ideas for my first enquiry display? Maybe you might have some resources you could share or a website you could share that has fab resources on?

Watch this space for my display...

Inspiration...

Stumbled across this video earlier and it reminded me why I am a teacher...
I want to inspire!

Do you have a teacher who inspired you to follow your dreams? Or inspired you to become a teacher yourself? I know I do!
