Teaching resources
You can, of course, use any books you want when taking part in Up for
Reading, but we are sure that children will enjoy using
the wonderful
books by any of our Up for
Reading supporters.
This page provides links to some useful teaching resources that will help you use books
by Lucy Cousins, Michael Morpurgo, Quentin Blake and other authors for your Up for
Reading activities. These include lesson plans that link to the national
literacy curriculum, as well as other useful materials.
