Our Discovery Programme gives London primary schools all the books and creative resources they need to put on three book gifting events over the course of the year. By the end of the summer term every child will have had the chance to choose and take home six books of their own.
Each term your books will arrive with beautiful printed resources to enable you to put on a fun and inclusive gifting event where children can browse and choose books to take home and keep:
- Autumn Term BookSparks
- Spring Term Pop Up Bookshop
- Summer Term Book Bundle giveaway
Each of the above works as a standalone, but it may also be worth thinking in advance about how you can dovetail your events with that term’s wider literacy activities and events.
BookSparks cards (for both KS1 & KS2)
- Gamification supports enjoyable and memorable book talk with no prior knowledge of books required.
- 30 beautiful cards in a pack: lots of variety, visually stimulating and engaging.
- One simple question on each card for children to respond to, whether independently, with friends or as a teacher-led activity
- Illustrations support wider activation e.g. a book treasure hunt.
- Links to the National Curriculum for English
A Bookshop Experience
- Books, bunting, posters, bookmarks & tokens for you to build a Pop Up Bookshop
- Children visit with their class and choose two books
- Huge talkabout factor
Book Bundle giveaway
- A beautifully wrapped bundle of two books for every child
- Children browse for a bundle and swap amongst themselves
- A simple, hands on mechanic ideal for pre-holiday gifting
