⏰ Wake-up call! ⏰ 2023 shows the lowest levels of reading enjoyment since our records began. We need urgent action to ensure children have the skills they need. Read the research: literacytrust.org.uk/researc…
ALT Infographic with green background and text that reads: Wake-up call. Reading enjoyment levels are at their lowest since our records began. 56.6% of children and young people do not enjoy reading in their free time. 71,351 children and young people aged 5-18 from 285 schools took part in our Annual Literacy Survey. The above stat is based on children aged 8-18.

Lately, I'm left scratching my head at the way key concepts about reading instruction are explained and defined. So, I made a glossary and provided links to hopefully clear up confusion. I hope it's helpful! jenniferserravallo.com/blog/…

We can rethink our challenged and banned book displays. How do we visually emphasize that *the challenges and bans are the controversy* - and make it so it doesn’t all sit with the content, characters, and authors?
