Reading Corner

[Guest]

Oo this is my first post so I hope this is right

 

Basically my headteacher has given all the teachers £200 to spend on rejuvenating their reading corners. It is a sort of competition as she wants everyone to make an effort.

 

Being in reception my reading corner is already quite a nice space for the children but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas that would really have the wow factor or if you can recommend any specific furniture/designs.

 

Thank you all in advance

A colleague at my local children's centre has revamped several areas in her setting including the book corner area - the link below to the latest Elizabeth Jarman CFS newsletter shows what she has been up to (pages 14-15 feature the book corner area)

How about a reading tent for your outdoor area also? Elizabeth Jarman's stuff is great! Do you have front facing book cases in your indoors? They are great as the front cover is so inviting for children's books!

I had this link sent from our Schools Library Service recently - there are some really good ideas here :1b .

You could also google images for 'reading corner' - there are some pretty fantastic ideas out there!

Good luck!
