Unlike a display of finished outcomes, a strong working wall acts as a road map, guiding children through the planning sequence and supporting the application of skills in context. 🛠️ ✍️

Our Literary Leaves (for years 2-6) use whole books, rather than extracts, to immerse children fully in different literary worlds. They support teachers to ask the right questions and to nurture critical reading skills. 📖 🍃
