Bookmark and Prompt Card (additional resources)

Bookmark with cricket reading a book
Reading Strategy bookmark for younger readers.

Thank you for your comments and emails about the recent prompt card and bookmark. In response to early years’ teachers, we are happy to offer the Reading Strategy bookmarks for younger readers (PDF 342 kB). To limit the quantity of text, two different bookmarks have been created; one bookmark supports word solving, the other comprehension. Both bookmarks have prompts for checking on the reverse side. We hope you’ll find these useful.

We’ve also posted a follow up resource for the ‘Warm Up for Reading’ prompt card. The new prompt card, ‘Stay Active during and after reading’ (PDF 220 kB) reminds students to synthesise, reflect and evaluate. To minimise clutter, the quantity of print has again, been kept to a minimum.

To support students to apply these before, during and after reading strategies with lessening support over time, we are also making the “Warm up” and “Stay Active” prompts (PDF 297 kB) available as double sided bookmarks.

We wish you well as you forge ahead, supporting students to become better readers!
