Practical idea - Get Caught Reading
22 Feb 2011
Lend pupils disposable or digital cameras and ask them to photograph staff (teaching and non-teaching) reading a book/ newspaper/magazine. Blow these up to poster size and put a caption underneath that explains why the person has chosen that particular read ('I love this book because...'). Put the posters up all over school. Photograph the pupils too, and allow them to be captured reading magazines or comics, as well as books.
