Mind Your Own Business KS2 (Literacy Hour Units) Book

The "Literacy Hour Units" series aims to resource that part of the National Literacy Strategy that calls for shared and guided group reading of a common text within the structure of the Literacy Hour framework. Using selected titles from the Scholastic Children's Book list, the series provides multiple copies of the books for group reading, along with teachers' resource books, containing both lesson plans for using the texts within the Literacy Hour structure as well as supporting photocopiable activity sheets for pupils. Lessons are organized under headings of "Whole-class Work", "Group Work" and "Plenary". An overview grid provides at-a-glance information about the word, sentence and text-level work covered. Each teacher's book has an A1 double-sided, text-based poster in the middle for use as shared text for whole-class teaching. "Mind Your Own Business", by Michael Rosen, is a collection of poems that reflect the experiences of children and portray their feelings in authentic, everyday language. Illustrations are provided by Quentin Blake.Read More
