Practical idea - Football tickets competition
16 Feb 2011
Ask your pupils to write to their local club to see if they can obtain some tickets for a football match or other merchandise (football clubs often have unused football programmes that they will happily give to schools). Once the club has sent you tickets or merchandise, set up a reading competition and use these as the prize.
This idea works well with reluctant readers, and boys in particular.
