The Power of Introducing Children to a Variety of Texts

We want reading to be fun, keeping the love of books alive for children of all ages. But what happens when reading becomes too challenging? Children will want to stop. Give up. They will become frustrated with the process. For dyslexic readers, who find reading challenging, there are ways in which you can gently encourage the love of reading, whilst helping a child to develop their listening and concentration skills along the way.

Using Reading with Giglets as a Writing Stimulus

When teaching reading in primary school, a wide choice of vibrant and engaging reading books is essential.

This month we're delighted to give a deeper insight into one of our newest additions: 'The Hedgehogs and the Hare'.

On Giglets, there is a choice of task types ready to use in the classroom with individuals, groups or a whole class.

Music is hugely powerful and can shake a whole spectrum of emotions from us. Can we use this to our advantage within the classroom?

Reading and writing are intrinsically linked, and teachers see the benefits of teaching writing by connecting their pupils’ writing with a reading stimulus.

St. Andrew's Primary School in Newport, South Wales have been using Giglets since 2017 and we are delighted to have helped engage and include all learners in their literacy teaching.
