Whole School Texts

Here are just some of our favourite books that could be used as whole-school texts. They are either books we have used or seen used across either an entire school.  These books make good texts for use across a whole school either because their themes can be read interpreted in a number of ways, or because they are wordless and can be ‘decoded’ by readers of all abilities. They often have a sense of immediate engagement, but equally more is ‘revealed’ the more we look at the pictures and study the words.  It is worth investigating other books by the author listed, as they often also lend themselves to a whole-school author study.
