Practical idea - Run a Top Trumps club
16 Feb 2011
You could run a Top Trumps club yourself or enlist the help of some of your pupils. Top Trumps sets, which feature football clubs, managers and players, WWE wrestlers, cars and rugby stars often work particularly well with boys.
Read a case study of one school's “Top Trumps Library Tournament” idea which helped to raise the profile of the library.
