📚️ This month’s hot topic for the National Literacy Trust is ‘Get Outdoors’.

In May, schools across the country celebrate Outdoor Classroom Day. So why not kick‑start your outdoor learning with their free curriculum-linked ideas? These activities support learning across subjects and help boost literacy—all while enjoying the great outdoors.

📚️ Pwnc llosg y mis hwn i'r Ymddiriedolaeth Llythrennedd Genedlaethol yw 'Get Outdoors'.

Ym mis Mai, mae ysgolion ledled y wlad yn dathlu Diwrnod Ystafell Ddosbarth Awyr Agored. Felly beth am roi hwb‑i'ch dysgu yn yr awyr agored gyda'u syniadau am ddim sy'n gysylltiedig â'r cwricwlwm? Mae'r gweithgareddau hyn yn cefnogi dysgu ar draws pynciau ac yn helpu i roi hwb i lythrennedd - i gyd wrth fwynhau'r awyr agored.

As the summer sun begins to peek through the clouds, we encourage teachers to mark outdoor classroom day in May and get outside to celebrate literacy with ideas and activities for pupils aged 4 to 14.

"About twenty years ago I first met a human being called Jamie Smart. I was very lucky to meet him. We all are..."

In our recent quarterly newsletter, Publisher David Fickling shared a brief history of comics, a celebration of Jamie Smart, and a strong case for why changing children's relationship with reading starts with play and fun.

Our full Read Deeper quarterly news is exclusively available to SLA members, but we have made this insightful piece available to everyone: https://bit.ly/42hRYIo

We are looking forward to welcoming Jamie Smart to our Annual Conference next month, where he will lead a live draw-along and take part in a Q and A session. Have you booked your ticket? https://buff.ly/cbczF18
