Readerful is a new library full of all the ingredients to get every child reading fluently and for pleasure.
Readerful is a new whole school library designed to motivate every pupil to read for pleasure, developing reading fluency and comprehension. With leading authors and illustrators, the series includes illustrated poetry, non-fiction, stories to read aloud, graphic texts, variety fiction plus character mini-series. Readerful offers a holistic approach to post-phonics reading and is made up of 3 main components: Books for Sharing, the Independent Library and Rise.
‘Readerful’s Books for Sharing have all been very popular and very much enjoyed across the school – both the artwork and the words that are used in the text. Also, the subjects are really interesting.’ – St Matthew's RC Primary School
‘As a school with a high proportion of EAL, we find some children have issues with vocabulary, particularly in the early years. That’s why the ‘words to look out for’ feature, at the front of the Readerful books are really appealing. It’s clear in the books which words specifically to tease out and to use as a bit of a springboard. It’s also clear how much research and hard work has gone into Readerful: we know that the ‘words to look out for’ are going to have impact on improving children’s language.’ – Muscliff Primary School
